Hi took multi out tonight was driving nice pulled up it conked out started again after several attempts when it did it revved right up and stayed like it so I disconnected all wires running in to the throttle body and injector light come on revs died down turned car off started 5 mins later high revs again so stalled car and connected wires back up to throttle body it now drives but conks out when u put ur foot down on the clutch I would like to hear a sulluton as already done 1500 pound in 6 mths on the car any suggestions welcomed that'd and anything plugs were changed 6 mths ago an air filter etc full service with oils 4 weeks ago has done this on and off for a while now. Car is a 1.6 elx multipla vreg

Some one must no I've been at the car all day chasing wires and come up with sod all car is acting normal until u screw it or give it a bit more revs than normal then problem starts again looked at filters plugs all ok leads all sparking coil pack has the normal multipla crack wondering if it could be coil what are the tell tail signs ie car does run rough on tick over sometimes when warm
 
could be dirty egr valve or dirty cam sensor or throttle body clean them all!! a naff egr will cause the car to run fine cold but when warm stall at junctions and re start also check the idle control valve is clean again if faulty will over rev and stall when clutch pressed common on alot of cars being an ex vm worker these were common failers and caused stalling paul
 
Never new a 1.6 ha a egr valve ?????? Will try the rest Boxing Day
 
Nothing abit of carb cleaner didn't sort, will take it for a long run later thanks for all ur help
 
hope you get it sorted let us know how it got on and any improvements paul
