Default sapphire missfire please help!!!

Hi everyone im new to the forum, but i was told you were the people to speak to.
I have a 1989 2wd sapphire cosworth, i took it out for the 1st time in a month or so today and it seems to of aquired a violent missfire, popping bagging etc. the car ticks over fine and can be driven gently but as soon as the throttle opens up and its get to about 3000 rpm world war 3 stets off. Iv checked all the usual, plugs leads dizzy cap etc but still no joy, i left the car to cool and after changing the plugs i brayed it up the road and it went spot on with out a missfire but as soon as it got up2 temp it started to miss and seems to get worse.
Please help me!!!
