hi guys, had a problem with my car for couple of weeks now due to smashed spark plug going into cylinder head(thankyou F1 autos), now its ******* out with smoke from exhaust and is really not drivable, i disconnected the HT lead from cylinder #1 and smoking stopped and drives alot better than it did

So should i be driving the car on 3 cylinders, i get a wierd smell when i pull up after driving it, i am planning on getting new engine next month, do you think its ok to drive for short journeys till then

Fuel is still being injected into the cyl,on which you have removed the lead from.I would not advise to drive the vehicle,and if you absolutly must,then remove the connector on the fuel rail to the damage cyl

Less than advisable!
