#1: 180 starting then cuting out! help Author: kingdom200, Location: Leamington SpaPosted: Sat Jan 29, 2011 12:37 pm ---- Right so just as the plans to keep the car and funds to make it look great have come through, its now misfiring and cutting out.
Ok so first of all you should know the cars been sat for 4 months but started now and then... the car started and ran fine last week but this week i started it and it idles really low miss fires and then dies.
So my thoughts might of been:
1: spark plugs
2: old fuel
3: fuel pump
4: boddies
I am by no means a mechanic and tbh have no idea what it could be...
All i can tell you is its a 206 gti 180.
The fuels been in there for ages and the symptoms stated above and that's it i guess... please help, i hope to have her back to full health and hope to still go ahead with my future plans.
Fingers crossed its nothing bad.
thanks in advance.
Dom

I don't know what the probably with your car is - from experience a GOOD drive usually sorts it out
Presumably you feed her super unleaded?

Yeah i do feed her the super unleaded and its not insured though so i cant go out and drive it. My dad will be home next weekend so hopefully he can help then we will see her at the next local meet hopefully!
