Dont get me started on this mate my motor has been in the garage for the past 2 weeks trying to get this problem sorted.
So far I have replaced the crank sensor, hall sensor, temp sender unit, dizzy, fuel pump relay, and lastly the ecu (if it arrives in the post today hopefully).

If this doesnt work it will be taking a long drive off a short cliff!
