Hi there Mick. I'd think the first thing to go for would be the fuel tank mounted lift pump, they either die a death or they can fart about for a while as the brushes wear out. You should be able to hear it faintly as it pressurises the system when you first turn the key.

hi steve i cleaned a few connections up today took it for a run ,ok for 20 miles then cut out ,abs and handbrake light on and anti pollution, it started right away and got me home when i switched off it ran on a few seconds i thought it did that yesterday but today i noticed it more, ive just read the post above about running on, would the stop solenoid also cut my engine while driving if faulty?
