it would lose power sometimes yes, it hasnt stalled at a junction as of yet, but sometimes the revs goto as low as 300rpm then back upto 800ish | |

My dad had exactly this on his astra GSi turbo, and after lots of trips to vaux it was a crank shaft sensor or somesuch! | |

I had this problem with mine too - it turned out to be idle control valve. had it replaced but costly... | |

once i have been out for a long journey it just keeps turning over and then will not start! if i leave it for 30mins once it has had a chance to cool down then it will start, i know engines still heat up after they have been turned off, this may be why, shouldnt be though, maybe its due to ICV? |
