could be the immobiliser

prob not this but mine cuts out occasionally after starting and it's the fuel spill pipes loose. I nip them up and all is well.

Hi Butler 4x4, did you ever fix this? Sounds very similar to my problem - see my post here.

Engine runs for 3 seconds then just cuts out, eventually works OK, then its perfect - no misfires etc. SOunds very much like the immobiliser - wondered if theres any way to bypass immobiliser just to emiminate it
- Im not trying to nick one honest!
