The engine on my car X14XE cuts out randomly when i'm slowing down and it has only happened a few times. Rocker cover has just been done and got new plugs the same time. there was oil to be found on th plugs and the mechanic said that was probably to blame.
two months on, it just cut out again randomly but there is no chane of oil on the plugs.
Any suggetions guys and gals?
