    Nice one , cheers folks , it is indeed the dash sensor, it was still working by a strand.

    Got it all running nice now , new plugs, leads, cam , arm and cleaned the iscv out , was filthy.

    Tested the TPS and it runs 2.3k ohms on closed throttle and 6.2k on WOT.

    However its slow reacting , if i snap the throttle open it takes about 2-3 seconds for the readings to adjust, is that normal or not ?

    When i plugged it in i fitted it all the way backed off and it runs when cold at 1300 rpm ish but without that horrid missfire now. However when putting foot down in second or third the car really stutters as if no fuel gets in and then picks back up a few seconds later so thinking this sensor is knacked or badly adjusted, if i disconect it , it idles high all the time but doesnt hesitate.

    Any help as always appreciated.

    P.S can someone give me some info on the supposed cold start valve and its operation ?

    Cheers
