Ahh. Where is the ECU earth? Is it a separate connection or is the metal casing earthed?

You can see the bolt with the eyelets attached. Just above the ECU. (in the photo, not in reality.)

Someone buy that man a beer! It worked :-) The ECU earth had fallen down the back and was making occasional contact with the engine. I fitted tight and now its running well. Many thanks to all the replies!
