| Glutton for Punishment | Engine Stalling Problem Hey All Next problem with the yella fella! Noticed today, started the engine (was cold), put it in first, drove out of my lane and up the hill to the end of the road. As I was coming up to the end of the road, I dipped the clutch and started braking, and the engine stalled. It continued this pattern for about half a minute, where the revs would fall and not recover. In the end it stopped it. It's done this to me before. Any ideas? Just put in new plugs so it can't be that (it's done it before the plugs were changed). Maybe the throttle body clean needs doing?

| Glutton for Punishment | Re: Engine Stalling Problem Decided to do it today - gonna do the 1.6 too if it's outside (don't know if mum has taken it to work or not). Failing that, along with it's infrequent inability to start when warm, maybe coolant sensor could do with replacing? If the car thinks the engine is warmer than it is, it could be not putting enough fuel in.
