I think my PTU has gone funny or is going funny as reading through the searches its seems to be pointing here. Here are the symtoms, some my relate to other problems though.

 

+ Engine dies sometimes when I de-clutch.

+ When cold has major flat spots like its drowning on its own fuel.

+ Sometime seems to cut back like its hit the rev limiter, but its only at 5000 rpm. This happens when cold only.

+ When warm, idle is lumpy and erratic.

+ Went onto 5 cylinders mid journey on way home.

+ Still on 5 cylinders after restarting 20 mins later.

+ Didnt notice any smoke out the back and temp seemed fine.

 

Well have a look over the engine in the daylight tomorrow.
