without steering into carb territory..as a) not my strong point... and :) upon reading your post again its an I

 

is there oil leaking from the right hand side of the head into the distributor... in extreme cases this may cause the simptoms your describing. especially when you try to accelerate from low speeds in high gears.. at high revs it may be better.

 

secondly, does it get worse when warm?

 

Are the other leads to sensors etc covered in oil and grime....

hmmmmmmm, sounds like theres a block somewhere or the coil pack is breaking down. have u changed the fuel filter? and or coil pack for a known good one?

 

 

Kyepan: i think this is an injection model...and not carb/dizzy setup.

it is a single point injection but does have a dizzy, havent looked into that yet, if it was fuel filter wouldnt it do it all the time at any speed ! when we got the car it did this juddering but it was like once every ten minutes ! thought could put up with that its almost impossible to use now cause of this problem, it does it wheather hot or cold,

might be the ignition Amplifier, bolted to the side of the distributor on these I'm sure.
