Ok, got into car to get home, started it up, and it stalled on me, started it again and kept foot on throttle for a bit but as soon as id let go the revs would drop well under a grand and would just stall again.

Drove it home, keeping revs over 1000 at junctions, and now its home it idles just under 1000, but is a wirring noise from engine, could it be my alternator? as it has snapped before and needed a new bracket bush and bolt put on but never got round to it, as it's a cambelt off job :boggle:

Could that be why? Also when i start it up after ages, it stinks kind of like petrol :boggle:

any help much appreciated cheers
