| Is the 1.4 MPi basically the old Skoda 1.3 found in the Felicia? Would disconnecting the batt for a day then reconnecting it to clear the ECU help? |

| Mmm The 1.4 8v engine is the old push rod felicia engine Yes , check the spark plus to make sure that they are all ok That would be the start Maybe worth getting it checked on VAGCOM too to see if it throws up any faults Sarah |
