Starter may have been recon, i didn't fit it, but this is the third starter. Checked all earths, twice and haven't tried jump leads. Does jump start tho which I thought a bit strange and made me think that it had to be starter or something connected to it, but as I've said, this is the third one, surely i can't be that unlucky!!

Try some good quality jump leads with the negative one to your engine not the battery, this will show whether it is your cables / earths. What oil are you using ?

Don't know what oil as I didn't change it last. Curious tho, why?

The problem doesn't seem to present when the car is idling at nornal temp, only when it gets above around 2000rpm. I have checked the ECU in the footwell and there are no indications from the LED. I'm therefore thinking that it's not the distributor or any of the other sensors (as this would be indicated by a fault condition?) There has been some mention of resetting the ECU by disconnecting it; what's the best method of doing this - should I remove all fuses marked 'engine management'? Any clues gratefully received.

At the moment I have the ECU disconnected in the vain hope that it might be a corruption that will erase itself, but I know that is a slim chance (but it's free!) Thoroughly depressed as I have only had the car a week (bought privately). Cheers.
