Today I fitted a new thermotime switch to fix the cold start problem. The new sensor had a different connector to the original, the same type as the CPR and cold start injector. So I crimped on a new bosch type connector and job done, all working properly now :)

Good old ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111137130100?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D111137130100%26_rdc%3D1

I also got the ISO connectors for the radio off ebay too, no crimping wires together for me!

If you want to fit these types of connector properly you need a non insulated crimp tool like this:
