   well my saxo has had a wee starting problem for a while which i found out was the coilpack but after a while all went back to normal and was waiting until payday to replace it, but since the freezing weather has come its struggled to start and has started misfiring at low rpm and will idle at 2-3-4k rpm.
   
   guessing this is the coilpack completely buggered now ?

   id say youve got an air leak
   
   check vac pipes etc..
   
   if you can get it running..spray carb cleaner or wd40/easy start rounf the inlet area etc..if revs pick up its defo a leak
