Today i was on my way to work with a full car of lads and i started to go up a hill and then my car started slowing down and the revs wouldn't increase if i put my foot down, so i pulled over. I started the engine up again to get the car to a safe place and it started stalling every time i tried pulling off. I've just got my car dropped off by a recovery truck so i had to drive it up my drive and the car is running fine :lol: i just took it for a spin and there's nothing wrong with it. Does anyone know what is going on?:)Leon Smith

Sounds more like rust in your tank to be honest… Rust will block the fuel lines when the fuel pump is sucking fuel and has a tendency to move and unblock therefore making the car work again… Common mk1 problem
