Is the engine actually getting fuel? Could be the fuel pump or is the air filter badly blocked? Which would cause it to be starving for either fuel or air or both.

You sir, are my new personal hero... 8)

After replacing and testing EVERYTHING, disconnecting the tacho I had installed has stopped the miss... 8)

Nope, it was just hooked up to the negative side of the tacho, it's one of those little 2 inch cheap Trisco ones...

Put it this way, it used to ALWAYS miss at least twice in a 5 - 10 minute drive, and after disconnecting it, it hasn't missed the last 4 times I have driven it for 10 or so minutes, so fingers crossed. :D
