it was dieing with shame

Check connections under engine bay fuse box. They are known to corrode and cause the system to die randomly

Check your fuel pump, they are prone to failure after a while.

OMG :jaw:We can,t believe you bought a Gaylander either. But:welcome2:

looks like to op has fooked orf then

Puncture fuel tank, light cheap cigar, walk away and throw cigar over your shoulder, keep walking and wait for the boom

Just drive it to the scappers and then buy a land rover

Much like scenario carried out artistically by vinni jones at the beginning of gone in 60 seconds.

Was he in that ???

Thought it was Nicholas Cage

OMG I cant believe anyone would have bought a Gaylander.

Have you got any lights on the dash? like 3 maybe. it may be the hairdryer in the 12volt (fag lighter) may be causing a Short.
failing that check the OverHead UnderHang, this is the blue box cover next to the Tripple Loop Converter.
Good luck anyway:welcome2:
