Question Stuttering and dieing at 2-3k

I hadn't moved the car for around a week, it got buried in snow while I was away for a few days and yesterday when I tried to start it it turned over sparked but did not start traced the fault down to the plug had come lose from the ecu. Now when I drive the engine stutters and feels like it's going to die between 2-3k revs, and I have to rev the nuts off it and slp the clutch driving round town to keep it going.
Anyone have any ideas?

Wouldn't start again today, had Greenflag out the car is turning over, sparking but I have no power going to the injectors. The engine control fuse is ok, so is there a relay somewhere or something else simple I'm missing?
Any help appreciated.
