Sounds dubious. One has to ask the question: Where do these used DI cassettes come from? Maybe it was salvaged from a car which needed a replacement? Maybe it was my old DI as I placed it next to my dustbin... New ones can be found at discount if you ring around, I used the Saab owners club mag. However, there could be other reasons for the misfiring. The head gasket in particular comes to mind. Don't delay. The DI usually gets progressively worse ending in terminal failure, and you're stuck. 1993 9000 CSE 2.0 LPT, 82000 miles. Runs like silk. Johannes
