Hello All. Has anyone seen this before please?
1996 Punto, 1108, 8v, 72000 miles, good condition overall. Passed MOT just before Xmas with no problems so emissions within acceptable limits.
Engine has begun to stall without warning, never know when it is going to happen. Prone to doing this after coasting approach to junction or roundabout. Engine is generally quiet and if concentrating on traffic, stall can be unnoticed until attempting to pull away.
Owner asked me to look the car over. Plugs, leads, oil levels all OK, connectors from Lamda and other sensors pulled and Electrosprayed, ECU reset done, problem persists.
How about fuel filter or fuel pump or could this be ignition? Punto's have been about since 1994, so this must have come up before. If anyone has had this problem and been able to identify the cause, would be most grateful to hear of it.
Thank you.
