Have u got the wrong ignitor or coil on there. I seem to remember rev 1/2 had this problem when doing a rev 3 conversion and one of these wasnt swapped out.

Yep. Classic sign of a rev1/2 igniter fitted to a Rev 3 turbo engine.
mine is a genuine rev3 turbo car so cant understand why someone would change the ignitor to a rev2 one ?
Anyway of finding out without removing i.e any visible difference betweek an earlier rev to rev3 ?
Am I right in thinking the ignitor is under the fuse box in the engine bay.

Its quite possible that a previous owner had a fault and replaced the part. Not sure what the differences are though but do know they are different.
