2001 Vauxhall Astra missing

Car: Vauxhall Astra
Year: 2001
Variant: 16 16v

Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss

ok i have an astra G and it was starting to miss had it checked out and was told it was my coil pack so had it changed still missing :( so then it was the EGR valve changed it was ok for a week or so then it was injectors and rail changed still the problem is there
3 coil packs 2 EGR valves injectors and rail later im at a loss i have no ideas yet if i take off the suction pipe from off the back of the carb and let it suck up some fuel cleaner it runs ok for a day or 2
when it misses only way to describe it is that it sounds like a Subaru EML lighs comes on then flashes when i go over 30 mph
any ideas :)

You mention " the back of the carb " ? Surely that car doesn't have a carb ? Check this link and the many pages on this problem .Hope it helps you .
