if you can swap the injector plugs and see if the fault follows the injectors or the leads.

Just spoke to my friendly neighbourhood ex honda technician and he lent me a compression tester and said it could possibly be a sticky valve as the engine hasn't been run for a few years! So roll on tomorrow evening when I can get back to the workshop!

I've done a compression test tonight all cylinders are 8- 8. 5 bar apart from number 3 which is 4 bar so the next move is to investigate the vavles on said cylinder
