cutting out ?

hi all just got r/rover 3.9 v8 classic had it 2 days now 3 times its cut out whilst driving (well) coming to a halt no loss of revs just dies has anyone ever heard of this before ? its just had full service done could it be the air flow meter ? poss electrical ? car is near mint condition and service record
is good anythink that could of gone by age ? any help would be good on this as its happend twice whilst turning so steering locked nearly dont want it happening with th ekids in see thanks andy ?

I had a similar problem when I bought my 3.9 RRC (1990-model). The problem was a corroded connection between coil negative side and the ECU. There's a wire there that tells the ECU about the engine revs. If the connection comes loose or corroded, any bumps might interrupt the signal when the ECU "thinks" that the engine is not running, and does not fire the injectors - hence stalling without any loss of revs.

The wire should be white, with black (or was it blue?) stripe. Check the connections of this wire. This is the easiest fix. Other possibilities are then a bit more difficult. Good luck!

fella sounds the same, nice one will check this wire but were is it roughly not familiar with the r/rover yet i was a bmw person lol thanks

Just check the coil and the connections there. The negative side should have a white lead (covered in black plastic cover) going into the ECU loom near the air flow meter.

It's not striped in my car , I just checked it under the bonnet. The older flapper type system had a wire with black stripe.

am gonna get a friend down whos a car spark he only charges 20 quid to check the electrics will check my self aswell but would like a serious opinion aswell cut out today turning into a street god was that steering heavy . dont want it doin that again when kids are in it .thanks though
