Welcome to LZ

Could be just coolant temp sensor, dodgy fuel filter, MAF or a little bit of everything. Best thing to do as you've just got it is pay £50 get it put on a Nanocom diagnostic. That way you can tell what it is, get it runable and sort the niggly bits at your leisure. Otherwise you are likely to go around in circles eliminating one part at a time with cost/time but little result. Unless you plan on rebuilding it?

If you have no-one around with diagnostics, look in Regional LZers for someone near you. Then you could try tempting them, to assist, with offers of cake and coffee

Custard creams/hobnobs work as good bait. Choccies work for some also

Wammers only trades in battenburg with Darjeeling

Henry_b is good with the V8's. He likes honey, but you don't want to get into that...

Crank sensor.

Crank sensors a good shout, they can play up when they get warm a bit like the old condensers in a distributor .

Thanks all. I thought crank sensor not easy to get to.

Some take starter off, I found it easier to jack passenger front, take wheel and arch liner off

2nd shout for CPS they start to stutter and fail, which causes the above,

Eventually it fails completely and ya up a paddle without a creek.

Bosch ERR7354 is the part you're looking for.

crank and cam sensors, in the Thor engines th sensors are quite reliable, which makes a change..

Best get her on diagnostics, no point shotgunning the approach to the issue..
