The next time I used the car it stalled within 5 minutes of starting from cold. It re-started well and behaved for the rest of the day. This scenario continued day after day. I had no idea what to do.

I thought I may as well change the dizzy cap and rotor arm while I had my head under the bonnet. The rotor arm turned out to be the wrong part so I just replaced the cap and fired her up.



Stone me, everything seems to be working just fine now....
If only things were always so simple in the end but a great result
