Problem solved, fitted Filter King and hey presto, now starts easily hot or cold. Thanks for advice.

Hi Rob,  Thanks for your input. The engine turns over at good speed, hi-torque starter and new battery see to that. I too suspected fuel evaporation and re-routed fuel line etc. At the mot, two weeks ago, the tester.commented that emissions were at the lean end of the range and could possibly be richened up a little, hence the confusion. It also has had new plugs and leads and uses electronic ignition.  

Engine very reluctant to start when warm. Starts no problem from cold, and runs very well otherwise. Any ideas?
