just got a new fuel pump relay didnt do fu*k all still misfires and doesnt go from stationary when accelerating around 2000rpm it judders still when shes idling and i quickly rev it it does not like this it cuts out or judders and then pics up back to stable idle!!!!!!

iv taken all the air sensors wires off one by one to see any difference but its definatly a HT thing as i took plugs out this morning and they were wet. put new super 4 plugs in made it worse, so put old ones back.

this is really anoying me as i have spent 150 so far. sent my dad to get me a new coil but he got the wrong one costing another £35.
