Hi, I have a 1997 manual Hyundai Lantra. The problem is it goes for 20 mins then just stalls like it is starving for fuel, then 20 minutes later it will go again, like it has some sort of air block problem, what could be causing this?

Rasmataz - you are a legend mate, I did not actually check the pressure but as I was googling how the check the pressure (to see if I could do it myself) I discovered a dying fuel pump could cause pressure to drop, made sense so I replaced it and it fixed the problem. Cheers. (Ill make a wee donation)
