RossM 8,149 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 Sitting in motor today, engine running and for no reason whatsoever it cut out and won't restart even fro cold, I'm thinking eithe crank sensor or maf, but will need to get diagnostic tool tomorrow to check, it's sort of abandoned on a country road so would really like to just get a couple of parts to take back and fit, does anyone know anything common with them? It's a 2003 combo van 1.6 8 valve petrol. Thanks in advance Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Baghdadnights 150 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 Could be fuel pump or cambelt. One thing though has the ignition key come apart when taking it out the ignition it's quite common. When they do sometime the immobiliser chip falls out on the floor if you move it with your foot just out of range the car will cut out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Key fine, car was just sat idling away, and cut out, defo not a cam belt issue, wee car with spanne light is on so nee to ge the launch down for a look, funny feeling the crank sensor is at fault, going open circuit when hot and I've perhaps flooded engine whilst cranking it over before it had cooled down. It's just that it's left in a c**t of a place and wouldn't have minded getting an idea of common faults so I've got an idea what tools I need to replace. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
