Car would start perfectly and idle, once the temperature gauge reaches 70 to 90 the car will stall. Car will restart and idle but soon as drive off and tramp in the clutch car will stall again. Please assist.

Welcome to 2CarPros.

The first thing that comes to mind is a faulty crankshaft position sensor. This car isn't available in the US, so my technical information is limited. However, here are three links. The first describes what the sensor does. The second link explains symptoms and the third explains in general how one is replaced. Take a look through these and let me know if the symptoms seem to mirror what you are experiencing.

Let me know if this helps you. If you have other questions, let me know.

Take care,
