Default fuelling

why has my car started to stall.it is fine when you fire it up but when you go to pull away it cuts out,and wont start again for a minute or so ,i am getting a good spark so how do you check the fuelling if that is the problem or what do people think it could be.
cheers

i have sort of the same problem, my car starts fine most times, but every so often it starts and dies out straight away. seems to do it most when i have bin to fill up at petrol station. i dont think its anything to do with fueling as my car is set up spot on fueling wise. it just seems to flood itself!

to check fueling you will need wide band labmda. also you can check mixure at idle, it can affect starting.
