Changed sensor mate still the same and the hotter it gets the worse it gets even struggling to start at one point sounds like its not running on all cylinders and when it cools down it's back to normal . Any ideas anyone . Cheers

I've just been reading some previous threads and noticed cts plug is possibly brown the one on mine was cream . If these are mixed up would it still run rough when cold or all the time . Does anybody know colours of wires to check for sure .

So any idea how to make sure the plugs are on the right ones has you say your cts is brown and others say cream . Maybe swop them over and see what happens . Thanks

Had another play this weekend and still no joy .
Plugs changed to bpr6es first and also tried b7ecs gapped to 0.9 mm both new
Tried new leads from powerspark with long king lead also now put old ones back on decent quality
New coil from powers park gel filled .
New cts sensor
New ignition module
New cap and rotor
Cleaned earths on rear of engine can't find other one though .
Haven't cleaned ecu or checked wiring yet has ran out of time, do I have to cut shroud on cts plug to check it .
Don't think its anything coming loose because I ran it on tick over up to temp and it played up without moving .
Checked in the dark for arcing couldn't see any
Anyway I'll keep trying thanks everyone for your help so far

Did a bit more checking and cleaning today , checked black and white wire ,afm plug , dizzy etc . Took off ecu plug and replaced . Took it out and tried just going slow and seems to last a bit longer soon has I put my boot down it came back . I can get it to idle if I fettle throttle a bit .
Wandering now if it's fueling I can't hear pump even when I turned on ignition perhaps it's not getting enough fuel or maybe needs a new filter . Anybody now if they should hear pump and what filter size is , outlet etc
Cheers
