See if it still cuts out, if so take it along to a local garage and get them to scan it with a diagnostic machine and see if they can find anything to point you in the right direction.
The revs fluctuating is normal and down to the power steering.

#5: Re: Cutting out Author: Duncan, Posted: Sat Jan 19, 2013 4:24 pm ---- Now and again,for some reason it is only while i am turning,never does it while i pull up straight.

The valve control the amount of air at idle.
When you turn a corner the power steering pump puts a load on the engine. That load will cause the revs to drop.
The ECU will see the revs start to drop and control the steeper motor to give slightly more air to compensate for that and idle should be constant regardless of turning the steering wheel.
The throttle body and ICV get coated in carbon and the valve sticks. You can clean them and it is usually successful.
