I've had a Ford Fiesta 1.3 Duratec 2003 dropped off at my house.

The AA bloke and my own OBD II reader said it was the coilpack. A common fault, so I changed the coilpack, the leads were knackered as a well as the plugs so they've all been done.

I then double checked positions. Cleared fault codes.

Exactly the same as before. The battery is on it's last legs so I used a spare one I had knocking around to no avail.

Also checked the first steps like fuses, oil.

Damn thing still won't start. Same symptoms as before. Absolute nightmare to start and when it does it sounds like a tractor.

Anybody have any suggestions?
