Are you able to restart after it stalls? Could be the idling speed is too low.

Try cleaning the throttle body and IAC.

Hi,
The idling is fine.
Where is the throttle & IAC?

We have noticed that where is power from the coilpack once you have start it but when she cuts out & if we try again there is no spark.


What can that be?

No sparks means you could have a fault with the crank sensor. Check for trouble codes.
