Hi All,
My 2000 petrol Multipla is only running on cylinders 1-3. It was working fine (as fine as 205,000 km should be...) and I stopped at the shops, and started it up again, drove 20m and the 4 cyl cut out. I tried revving it a bit, but no help. I limped home, and checked to confirm that there is spark. Pulled the plug and started it up and I could see spark when holding the plug against ground. I tried leaving the plug out for a few hours to try drying it out in case it was flooded. Still doesn't fire on number 4. I pulled the plug again, and I can't smell any petrol on it.
Suggestions on what to do/check? I live in rural Norway so taking it to a dealer is not an option.
Thanks,
Joseph
