We were just motoring along doing 50 + then we lost all power and ground to a slow halt by the side of the road.

I have a spark at the plugs so it sounds like it could be petrol starvage.

Any one any ideas. We had to be towed home.

Hi, had exact same symtoms on my 1.8 petrol. Advice on this forum was to check the fuel pump, located in the top of the tank, under a plate in the rear floor. Checked the connector block, and 2 of the terminals were green with corrosion. WD40, wire brush...no problem since!
Hope this helps,
