another thought is that it is something unrelated like a exhaust valve sticking which is common with these.

I have done that before, the thermotime and ecu temp are right next to each other. This time I made sure they were marked so they couldn't be mixed up.

I might borrow a laser temp gun and see what the cylinders are doing. Should be able to narrow it down to a set area and work from there.

Still not sure that a oil change will change much, but it's something I could try.

Have you updated to a Bosch BIM024 module? If not, do so post haste. Cures all manner of ills. There is a good how to thread started by bee utey if you haven't seen it.

Yeah I did that a couple of years back and to be honest, didn't really note too much of a difference afterward.

With that, one of my tests were to get it doing the hesitation and sprayed the ignition module with freeze spray. If there was a heat problem there, that test would have shown it.

i've just fixed a vibration in the dizzy caused by worn drive gear on cam. After replacing that dizzy now runs smooth no vibration BUT i've picked up a miss when accelerating. i suspect distributor cap the rotor button was wobbling with vibration but now its smooth i wonder if gap between rotor and cap is just a bit big? Runs perfect at cruise idle etc just a miss accelerating under a bit of load
