Hi everyone. I have a 1988 Panda 1000cl. I’ve had it a couple of years and although I’m not mechanically experienced I serviced it, replaced the starter motor and fixed the gear linkage. There are 63000 miles on the clock. It has been running nicely and I recently drove her from Belfast to Tunbridge Wells where I have a new job. Last night I took her out to the shops then stopped for a kebab and when I got back in and tried to start her up she fired but cut out when I released the key on the ignition. I repeated this quite a number of times. Sometimes she failed to fire and sometimes successfully fired but cut out again when the key was released in the switch. The AA came out and couldnt she’s any light on it. A colleague checked the fuel pump this morning and it seems to be okay. He suggested replacing the ignition coil. Any thoughts would be hugely appreciated!
