Well, as I mentioned, the fuel injector was spraying petrol out...well, ok, not dramatic enough...it was gushing out like a geyser. No, to gay...anyway! On removing the Fuel Injectors I found this:
Ruptured O-ring on the leaky injector, as I thought, and on another...
Quite corroded. On tightening everything back up, I was hoping it was all good to go...but it wasn't, the engine obviously was starving cylinder 4 of petrol, and as a result, the car ran like absolute crap...but it doubled as a smoke machine, so there is a silver lining (to the Petrol-based cloud in the garage)
