Still the bloomin' same! Stupid car.

It does seem * slightly * better - it still takes too long to start, but when idling, does not cut out. I also took it for a drive, and it didn't cut out when driving.
It does however seem quite rough for the first 30 seconds or so after starting (although it was rather cold today so I can forgive it for that).

So - any other ideas?

(I also seem to have broken my dash somehow as well - separate thread on that).
It shouldn't run rough regardless of weather. Try wiggle the connector on the end of the fuel rail, this plugs into the regulator on the rail. If it then starts performing properly give it a good clean.

What fuel pressures are you getting when running? Toaf should tell you the low pressure and high pressure readings.
