FIXED After checking coil secondary on Pico decided that KV outputs were very variable in amplitude.Both on the king lead and also on each individual coil lead. Replaced coil pack , car starts first time now all the time and runs without misfires when hot. Yep is was a faulty Intermotor coil pack. Tried to source OEM Bosch unit from TPS , they wanted £80.00+VAT, but could not confirm what make they had in stock. So bought more expensive of two coil packs available from Eurocarparts. Product was ERM unit (I think)£50.00, but they could not tell me anything more about quality of this part , just that it was better than the alternative cheapo part they stock because it cost more!!! Time will tell if this coil will be a bad buy and I should have used the TPS part at whatever cost. Thanks for your help once again. George
