How sure are you that timing is correct, did you strobe it? A strobe light connects to # 6 spark lead and this is the one you suspect being the problem. A spark at the plug can be deceiving; it may not be strong enough to ignite the fuel. If your HT leads, spark plugs and timing are ok, and as you say there are no signs of fuel on # 6 plug then I would check the plug and wiring going to the injector. You could swap the injector plugs over for 5 & 6, pull the igniter lead and turn the engine over to see if any fuel is coming through to either spark plug. I think it’s a question of elimination, if there are no signs of fuel in # 6 but fuel in #5 after swapping over the plugs then it must be the injector.

hi bill, lovely weather hey>

no i havent had the strobe on it yet waiting forthe timing light so i can do this.

i put a little bit of petrol down cylinder 6 and turned the car over andthe plug still came out wet?

the compression on the cylinder 6 is 110 and the rest are between 120 and 130.

ill get the light on it soon and time it then let you know how im getting on
feeling little dishearted, also there is a little wine coming from somewhere
im thinking the engoine is a little un balanced at the moment and this can cause unesssersary noise.

Coolant has a spout on the bottom of the driver side of the radiator.

Power steering. Undo the banjo bolt on the side of the p-stump.

EDIT: I was a sleep this morning when I typed this.
