    Arrow help needed please..!!!

    well all,i bought a 1.8turbo nissan 200sx,wasnt to sure at first would i buy it as i herd storys from people about them,but for a finish i seen the car,it started fine,drove fine bar a miss in the engine..

    I got the car for pennys basically as the fella i new had it needed a few quid.. so i started buy doing a compression test and ruled that out..all wer throwing up 170 or more in all cylinders..then i got a different loo that connects to the injectors as i thought there was a bad earth and still the same..cheked all the coils and swapped them with good ones and still a miss in the 3rd cylinder..

    Removed the covers on the head and the budy said ,everything is opening and closing as they should,valves etc.. the 3rd spark plug is getting petrol and theres spark and all..im not sure what to check next folks..cud it b the injectors are leaking or putting out to much petrol,or cud it be bad earth or something.. i dont no muh about nissans as i have had alot of cars bar a nissan so any info would be appreciated.. Have any of you came across any common fault with the that could make them miss like mine is missing?

    i had this exact problem last week a miss on cylinder 3 i tried everything few things here you might wanna do

    swap that injector with another one or just swap them round could be stuck open
    same with yr coilpacks
    do a leak test on injectors
    o ring might be leaking either
    pull yr plug on 3 see if its wet and getting fuel
    check your igniter chip heard they can cause it to miss

    i rewired all my injectors everything it eventually turned out to be a frail wire on injector 3 you could bareley even notice it, i had checked it with a multi meter an all and seemed ok id strip back the wiring on that and take a good look over it
