Right this is the 4th time within 2-3 weeks that the 5 has all a sudden cut out. Now i saw the rev counter just drop on light throttle so i pulled over igntion off and sat there for a few seconds then igntion on and saw the rev flicker and gave it a shot and it fired up no problems.
The 1st time this happened it was just cranking over so i pulled the fuel line off and turned over to see no fuel so wiggled the relay and hey presto
The 2nd time there was fuel going through so i checked for spark and hey presto put a spare one on from the boot and off i went
and the 3rd time i checked the spark and there was nothing until i got a shock myself a few seconds later! fired t up and away i went
now can i confirm that this will narrow it down to a tdc sensor or something related to the aei playing up?
any advice appreciated
