Default s2 escort rs....many problems!!

hi, iv got a s2 escort rst which iv owned for about a year. for about 10 months it was fine started first time every time and ticked over perfectly. but now its not starting when the engine is hot, it turns over but not fireing....but if i leave it for 20 minutes or so it starts up fine?!?! iv checked and changed all the usual things like leads, plugs, dizzy cap, rotor arm etc even the fuel accumulator which a mate told me to do and its still doing it, any ideas?
also it stools all the time!.. everytime i put my foot on the clutch which is very annoying, i hav obviously tried making the tick over faster which helps when it hot but then when its cold it ticks over way too fast!

also recently a bracket holding the radiator up snapped and pushed the fan into the intercooler and the nut on the end of the fan has made a lillte hole in it, do you think that would have anything to do with it?

any advice would be much appricated!
Mark.
