corsa dan, yeah insulation tape on the multiplugs and wiring, to stop moisture shorting out the terminals and giving false readings from the sensors.

Have you cleaned idle control valve? 2 torx bolts on the top of the throttle body on an angle. clean with carb cleaner and oil with some engine oil.

i guess youve changed the ecu coolent temp sensor already, try cleaning the TP sensor and ICV, Other than that try checking all the multi plugs and greasing them to get the moisture out of them, then put tape on them all.

try the spark plugs and leads. spray a bit of wd40 on the plugs or buy some bosch super 4s. other than that oil????? get some synthetic oil better for your car when it starts cold
