When you changed the leads, did you notice any oil in the plug wells? Also have you changed the plugs recently?
Have you pulled the codes to see if that would give us any clues?

as said 16v/24v and has it a key fob and the immobiliser been bypassed,if its
blown the back box out has the car been stored a while :?:
Any smoke on start up :?:
Rusty plug any loss of water :?:

Did you check for fault codes recently by using a diode and strap in the diagnostic plug
