no the resistance on the multimeter wont read correct, im not to sure what theresistance is meant to be, ul have to look up auto data or summat of that nature to find out, but for that sake of 7 quid i would just by one if you have doubts that urs is goosed

Will it just look like an open circuit if it's knackered?

My c20xe (astra gte) cut off yesterday when I started it from cold. Started up fine afterwards, but if i try to drive it when its cold it will cut out unless I give it alot of revs - which i dont by the way, just let it warm up.

Any ideas folks?
