m8 check all your boost pipes and vacumes as if u have a leak it will not start and idle try and take dump valve of as some people dont like them on the rs an say they cause problems just cut a bit of broom handle of and put it where the dv goes but id check all hoses first .

sounds like an air leak somewhere to me. or could be low on fuel. mine has a tendancy to cut out randomly whilst idleing when i have less than 1/4 of a tank in her. could be something similar?!

well the d/v could be the root of your problems!

is it a diaphragm or piston? piston ones should be used on ersts, even then they still leak after a while!
