If it only runs rough at the first drive, I wouldn't rule out damp in the dizzy.

thats fine, infact i had a cracked wire on an injector,have you tried running the engine, then disconnecting the injector plugs one by one, try it whilst its acting up, you should be able to see which one it is.obviously disconnetind 3 out of 4 of them will make it worse.

If I wiggle the main harness on mine it hunts a little and that is because the plug going to the throttle contacts is breaking the circuit momentarily. the main harness was not designed to be wiggled!

disconected each in turn, nothing. Did a compression check, well mate did, i think he said 137 psi on all four, cleaned the afm again, cleaned all plugs leads etc, changed fuel filter, swoped the air filter, cleaned batt terminals, flushed the coolant, checked oil level, checked al vacum lines, cleaned the tb out. And stil nothing. Then went and ripped the exhaust off on his drive! Dammit! Begging 2 hate this car!
