So the wife's ep2 blew the head gasket the other week. Corroded clip on the radiator hose dumped coolant on motorway hence blown head.

Now it's been repaired however when it's warm it develops a misfire!
Doesn't do it when cold.
Had new plugs, injectors and coil packs I'm told by the garage are all good.
Had a compression test done when cold and it was all good.
It's only on one cylinder but it's the cylinder that had the water in and it's only small.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Get her plug into diagnostics and it should show what is causing misfire on cylinder 1. Not a honda expert but swap coil packs & leads about and see does it transfer onto another cylinder

Could be numerous things, such as a head or piston damage.

Take it to someone that knows what they're doing and get them to check it out.
