Do i need to change the auto wiring for a manual wiring on the gearbox or can i cut and solder certainwires to fit?

What exactly does she do? tick over but not rev? or just fire but not run?

I would start with the basics, are you getting fuel to the engine etc'

I had a similar problem that turned out to be air in the fuel line, took a few seconds on the starter motor to even get her to fire and several more to get up and running.

It first starts up ok then starts to misfire, i can keep it running for 5 or so mins but have to keep goin on and off with the throttle

Will she tick-over on her own after 5 minutes or does the engine die?

( I believe the over fuelling warm up finishes after 5 minutes)

Also, will it rev smooth below 2500 rpm or is she lumpy?

If your happy with fuel delivery the next easy thing to look at would be an air leak, may be a pipe adrift.

No i turn the key it wants to start for about 2 seconds then misfires i have not got the gearbox wires pluged in under the bonnet will this affect?

Not sure if this is relevant,

but there are 2 similar connectors at the bulkhead that are interchangeable,

I think 1 is the knock sensor and the other is the O2 sensor. Not knowing what is involved in the conversion you may not have disturbed them.

It could be worth a check to see if you inadvertently connected them the wrong way round. just a guess mind.

Hi mate

Maybe we when the engine as dropped back a turbo hose as come off at the front of engine,

 

Goodluck
