    check your plugs and change em if there more then 10,000km or 6months old. make sure the gap is 1.5mm. make sure the leads are a tight fit on the plugs, if there getting on a bit replace em. lift the bonnet at night somewhere where there is no ambient light, you will quiet possibly some arcing along the leads
