Blew the engine up

Had it rebuilt and a remap, now it's OK.

Mine would go first time, every time, but then, 75% of the cold starts, ANYTHING except really feathering the throttle, caused it to die.

I had been thinking of getting Bob to take a look when it died for good at silly speeds on a 40 degree temperature French motorway.
