Cheers for that Howard, I have got the Ex back today from the garage they have fitted new HT leads as they say the old ones were arking out (may be the reason for the dog rough running) checked o2 sensor thats ok, reset light on dash so we will see what happens when I go off with the caravan in the morning, When the kit arrives I will have it fitted. Just one question whats that long stick like thing in the oom12 kit ? and whats it for ?
Thanks again

If you read the post it is a restrict-or that goes down an oil gallery to increase the pressure for the oil to the tensioner.
 












Update

Collected the truck from the garage on Friday connected the caravan pulled off the drive 100 yards up the road back on came the engine management light :rolleyes: I will just have to wait till I receive the oom12 kit get it fitted and see if that cures it, but apart from that there are no cold start problems and it fly's the looks I get blasting up hills at 70 pulling the van :D 300 mile this weekend no problems :navajo: :salute:
 






The OOM12 kit will probably solve the engine management light issue, with the replacement of the leaking lower main. gaskets.

You could always try giving the IAC (idle air control value) and MAF (mass air flow meter) a clean. They are both quite easy to do, you just have to be extra careful when cleaning the MAF, as the wire sensors are of course very easy to break. There are writeups on here on how to do both, just search 'IAC cleaning', etc. Or go to the list of useful threads.
