Was it the brown/yellow wire to earth?

All the codes are at the bottom of here:

Without it running you should get codes 12 (test cycle) and 31 (no rpm signal) normally + any faults.

Yeah i just got those two codes started it up for 30 seconds and the 31 went away, still no closer to finding whats causing it to miss but at least i now know its not a plug ive left off or something stupid, i had it running with the workshop door shut for 30 seconds and the ammount of fuel smoke out the back was unreal so i hope a CTS fixes it lol
