I also had a dodgy wire in the plug that goes to the coil that used to cause it to cut out,i just cleaned it up and tie-wrapped it on tight and it sorted it.

nice 1 cheers 4 that i will give it a go fingers crossed cos im loosing my rag wiv it now

[umpkin]

when my mate owned my car, he had a similar prob too (after it had been sitting for a few days), he was driving and it cut out, it turned out to be a mouse nest by the coil, they had chewed through the coil wires.

but could be in the right area, have you a multitester that you can chase back the wiring etc.

I had this problem after the car had been sat round for two weeks while I was on holiday.
