300tdi missing until warm

Hi, recently my 95' discovery has been missfiring after starting at first it will do it at idle but as the engine warms up the number of rpm required to get a miss will rise until they go away and the temperature gauge is midway.

It takes about 5 hours in 15c weather for it to cool down and recreate the problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

edc injector cable plug may have been not fully connected.

wiggled the cable in the dark the other night and everything running good except for check engine light, drove down the road 500 meters then the check engine light started flickering and the knocking started really badly, limped home after that.

today gave it a go with some contact cleaner and a firm pressing. no more check engine light and working good, seems like more power but might be the new fuel filter and the sedimenter which hadnt been cleaned out in 20 years.
