This is the second time this has happened now. It fired up but the engine spluttered and died then it just turns over but not firing up.

first time I just left it as I had to wait for the AA, typically it fired up when the AA got there. This was about a month ago it happened and now again?

Any ideas?

'97 5door 1.4 8v.

Could be lots of things , intermittant problems are the worse to find and fix I prefer it when something just does not work , call the AA thats why you pay them post what they say/find.
