0 SilverDan Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 sounds similar to a problem i had with mine a month or two ago. For me it was the ignition switch on the back end of the barrel. I just had to remove the switch, open it up and clean the contacts inside then put it back together and its been fine since then. Its worth a go for a free fix. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Dave Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Have you had the engine management light come on when it cuts out? At worst it could be the ignitor in the distributer. But that normally throws the em light on. Best to try the cheap options first before replacing that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
