it is a strange one lol when it misfires its almost like you have hit the limiter,but if you keep your foot down it will sort of clear,also it had a burst header tank when i got it ,one of
those plastic ones .but ive now changed it for a metal one. any more sugestions please

This is just a stab in the dark but I was wondering if you're using v power in it.
I've seen quite a few people trying to chase down a miss when using low octane fuel.
Welcome by the way.
