As above realy.
Car just dies after a few minutes at idle or driving, and won't restart for between two and ten minutes.
Any ideas on the subject would be gratefully received thanks folks.

Cheers Joe. 
Do you know if there's an easy test for this other than fitting a new unit?
Also, is it located timing chain end mate?
