Cutting out?
« on: 25 June 2009, 16:55:09 »
Just got my omega 3.0l elite auto vreg 2000 from the Vauxhall garage, which it went in for when hot cuts out then restarts when cold. They have replaced the crankshaft sensor and now when you come to a junction to stop it will cut out. But it will fire first turn and also, I just left it run for around 15 minutes and it would just cut out again but it will start first time again. This is getting an expensive problem as it's costing me every time it goes in, has anyone got any ideas?
Oh and on the paper clip test, there are no faults found and not even on the Vauxhall computer??

Fuel filter is fine had it replaced 2 months ago, but it's not doing it all the time now.
When I come up to a junction if I put it in neutral its fine, but only the odd occasion on it will stall in gear now. Would it be an idea to take off and clean the throttle bodies next?????
