We had the same on our 998, changed everything (rebuilt carb, changed to a spare 65D dizzy, new electronic coil....) Still couldn't cure this until one day we decided to start again. Fitted a coil from another supplier and bingo... Knocked that wall down, will now hit motorway speed

Coil from another supplier

 
I've tried 3 coils dude, all the same problem after wards, 4th at 60mph

Ok, does the car have a review counter fitted? When it misfires does it make small bounces(+-100rpm(fuel)) or larger bounces(500 to 1000 rpm (electrical))

 

 

i took the rev counter off and tried down the duals again with no look dude

dizzy is standard i.e. electronic ignition per A+ engines i will check the rotor arm, 

 

 

Was it not an MG Metro engine? That's pre-electronic ignition surely? My 1989 998cc Metro I purchased new still had points and that was one of the last ones.

 

I think Nicklouse has spotted the potential issue.

 

 

I've never had a 1275 mg metro on points, they've always been electronic as far as I've seen mate
