It is still sitting there... 200 1980

I heard of a chap with similar sympotoms in an injected 245. It would run for 5 minutes or so, die, and restart ok half hour later. Turned out thet the fuel "strainer" at the fuel tank/pum was blocked. He discarded it, fitted and inline filter and lived happily ever after. Worth checking as its a 0 pence cure to fix.

Regards,

big Rich.
