.....i have a 1.4 8v MPi astra mk3 with electronic ignition

recently, when i start it up it sounds very lumpy for about 5 minutes

today and yesterday, when i started it the car cut out after 30 seconds then refussed to start again for 10 minutes

spark plugs were cleaned a month ago, but were black today, has a spark but its weak i think. might be running rich?

any places to start? it had a full service 6 months ago and is ran every day


cheers

ps - quite ergent here as i need the car today!
