[Mothy]

Well - after almost 5 months I've finally getting back to fixing this issue.
In the mean time I'd been diagnosed with major brain tumour - surgery to remove last Oct, recovery, 6 weeks of daily radiation treatment (taking me up to xmas) and now in the middle of 6 months of chemo treatment. All going well and feeling fine - Dr is very positive things are tracking well.

Ok - getting back to getting the car back on the road. I took it for it's first drive in 5 months last night and things have not changed (as expected) - works fine for about 10 mins then will not behave above 2,500 revs. Able to drive home from the local roads OK but if I try to hard accelerate at all it just pops and engine cuts out till back to low revs. Gets worse as I continue to drive (things getting hotter?)

One thing I did notice once home last night was that the CDI+ unit was VERY hot - could not leave a finger resting on it. Am planning to swap over back to an old standard CDI unit and see if the problem disappears.
