Ah... There we go ;-) not sure why my original mail failed to get
posted?

Anyway, as soon as the car warms up she starts running rough, I tried
testing the O2 sensor last night, seemed to give okay voltage
measurements, but I have to try again when the engine is hot. What could
be heat sensitive when the engine warms up to cause this...
