   Could potentially be a faulty coilpack.

   Could be the coil pack as stated above, try cleaning the injectors too, are all the spark plugs in correctly? Sometimes a sensor may have packed in, map, icv, ect. Sure its got fuel? If it is very bad and no power could be more fatal

   As you can see there's a load of things it could be, first port of call is the plugs, and coil pack, then you can move on to sensors and other bits .

   How do you know the other engine won't have the same fault? Not necessarily now, but at some point it may well do.

   its strange but the other car is in better nick than mine by a long way the only reason im driving this one is cos i love the posi blue and not a massive fan of the silver i cant think of a good colour scheme for silver
