Default Ashfieldbuilders - XK8 not responding

Hi, I've never been on a forum before so please forgive me if I make any daft mistakes. I have a XK8 2000, it has been stood in my garage for about 18 months with very little fuel, when I started it, it had developed a miss fire so I replaced a couple of coil packs, having done that it now doesn't respond as it should when I depress the accelerator, it will rev but it is delayed by a second or so. Can any body help me please?

I've moved your post from the end of Macedon's Intro to a new one of your own so everyone sees it and also copied it to XK8/XKR tech forum for advice from members with the same model. Here's the link to it:
