T5 Cut out after hot start

855 T5,sometimes after it's been on a run,i'll turn off for a few minutes and when i restart,it'll cut out again. Give it 30 seconds and it'll start fine. Plug/lead problem? it's not throwing up any ECU faults. Bit annoying as it's auto,so has left me in a few awkward positions unable to get out the way of traffic without pushing.

Don't turn it off while you are in traffic then.

Could't resist that,lol. Try replacing your leads as they may be breaking dow under hot conditions. Whilst there I would replace the dizzy cap, rotor arm and plugs to be on the safe side.

I agree!

Yeah,thought about that,bit odd that it completely dies though.
My last one had lead issues,but it just misfired. It used to just do it when i first started it up,then after 30 seconds wait it carried on. Today though,it ran a minute or so then died....on a up hill....with traffic behind....and only the missus to push it out the way....thankfully some kind peeps helped get it out the way. :)
