Iv just received a christmas present from my car, it broke down on my way home from seeing family & it seems to be a bit of an odd problem. As soon as I left to go home I started the car up & it sounded slightly strange, but it started up & I drove off, then about 20minutes into the journey without warning the engine just cut out at about 35mph, then wouldn't restart but it turns over.
I then opened the bonnet & could smell a slight burning smell (electrical burning smell), Iv also noticed that the engine management light doesnt come up on the dash (was working fine before), as I wanted to do a diagnostic test.
I checked the fuel pressure on the sard pressure regulator gauge & it was showing good pressure & I could hear the fuel pump working, however I checked the spark & had no spark coming from the coil lead. The car also has a clifford alarm & immobiliser fitted (been on & working fine for over 6 years) with no problems. Im also running an emanage ultimate, which Iv been running for about 2 years no problems. Im betting its the immobiliser but thought i'd share the problem on here for any more suggestion or for someone to confirm my suspicion lol.
thanks
merry christmas
