Its happened twice now im driving along then all of a sudden the engine cuts out without any spluttering. Try to start it and it turns over but wont fire. First time it happened it was 11pm so left it till morning and it just started and was fine up till yesturday.

It stopped again n wudnt start so got a push out the way had a look at the coil connection left it for a bit and then it started,

but has now started juddering every once in a while.

Any1 got any ideas?
