2k misfire on on warm start until hot again
So my car has developed an annoying problem. From cold starts fine and runs perfect up to temp but then if I stop for say 10mins or so it cools to around 2/3 temp it has a misfire from 1.5k to 2k at any throttle load. Once it's up to temp again it's fine, if it's been left for a hour or so and nearl...

Bit of back ground around the issue, I've been trying to help out Adam with his Hartge converted H28 to sort a couple a of faults but as its a bit of a mash up of parts finding correct info/diagrams that match is difficult.

Great work, seams like a mission at the time but when you start to see the light at the end of the tunnel or rather when you can't see the light shining through the rust holes you get a sence of achievement knowing you can finally say it is "rust free"

Nice car and congratulations on the new arrival, shame your not after a place nearer me, my old house is for sale in Retford with a garage and workshop on the back, brick built shed and a drive. Bit far from Mansfield possibly although we have 4/5 lads work for us who travel from there.
