This might sound silly but there was a tiny bit of deisel in her the other week,

I drained the tank, changed fuel filter, used high octane petrol and an injector cleaner.

Problem only occured after diesel contamination?

Process of elimination on this one....

It sounds like one of the sensors is stuffed.... temperature based.

Try a new coolant temperature sensor as it looks like the car isnt fueling right until it warms up

Right, lately my C12NZ (1.2 8v) will start ok and idle ok.

As you start to drive it, get to about 2500rpm and it doesnt want to go any higher and just bogs out, then cuts.
Then when you go to start it again, it will take about a minute to get going again.
Once it is running it wont like going above say 2500rpm for about 5 mins, then it will run normally?

ANY ideas on this one?!?!
