Hi over the last few days my gt has developed a very small misfire just before turbo comes in and it fly's down the road.
My wife has also noticed that in the last week when I pull up outside the house the tv goes loses reception until I switch the car off.
Don't know if I'm making this up or I've heard it somewhere years ago but if that happens it could be something to do with the coil pack or ht leads not functioning properly? Any ideas greatful cheers.
 
I would start with the HT leads, find a mate or garage to swap the leads and check if the misfiring is still there or not. If not, buy new leads and if yes, move on to the coils.

Good luck!

the HT leads SHOULD be "supressed",
it may well be a loose connection is "arcing" and generating the electrical "noise",
by dirt bikes running always upset TV..,:eek:

leads are relatively cheap.. you could always look under bonnet in the dark ..looking for arcing..,
