try getting the ecu reset first maybe better when it has learnt new values, but may also have a sensor problem that might need sorting out.

If this started after cam belt change I'd be concerned that the timing was setup correctly..!

Who did the service/belt change..? I'd be taking it back to them as it could be any number of things, such as above or simply not gaping plugs correctly..!

what fuel you using? lower quality can cause the ecu to remove power etc
