right i got an early GSI C16 XE engine, when driving along at any speed the revs drop to 0 and the car cuts out you have to turn the ignition off and back on then bump it, if you drop the clutch somtimes the revs jump back to normal again, and some times if you turn the ignition off and on real quick it starts again.
Any ideas also happens if you hit a big bump, but also on flat road, could it be an alarm problem? (clifford cat 1)
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
any ideas some days it dont do it some days it does it all the time 80mph + possible steering lock coming on = central reservation & death not fun
