Some probably wouldn't take serious to how temperamental this can be but its unbelievable!
If th car has been lying for any amount of time it'll fire up first go given th battery has charge however after 10-15minutes roughly but at an exact time between th 2 times it starts playing up???

It'll be spluttery, want to cut out.. not rev properly, not idle but before it does this it will run perfect? If it cuts out itll refuse to start and just turn and give off th odd backfire then after a few hours it'll start and runs perfect again for 10 minutes then starts playing up?!

Its been fully serviced and had new airfilter, fuel filter and oilfiter. It's also had sparkplugs and an altenator belt. Anyone got any ideas as to what this could be?

Any CEL codes?

How old are the plug wires, cap, and rotor?

It's had a conversion but I'd assume it's not th ecu as it's been fine th last few year, just recently started its games.
