I hope someone could help, I started the engine this morning and it ran like a dog, felt like it was firing on five pots. I managed to drive to work but the drive wasn't great. when I pulled the cable from cylinder No 1 there was no difference in the rough idle so I pulled out all the spark plugs and gave them a jolly good clean, they had some soot on them so I may be running slightly rich.
Now the problem when I put my palm over the left exhaust it feels fine but when I do so on the right it feel like pops akin to small explosions against my palm definitely not right. I plan to buy a new set of plugs. could anyone throw some light on this, I'll be grateful.

OK exchanged plug cyl 1 with cyl 6 and the issue moved to the other exhaust so I have a duff plug, ordered a new set.
