    Today for the first time ever the surf broke down (temporarily).
    Whilst driving along the A580 first the engine check light came on then after cough & splutter it stopped. It restarted easily enough and drove for another 200 yrd and then same again. I admit not servicing her for 7000+ miles and wondered if the fuel filter could have a lot of crud/water in it even without the warning light coming on.
    Eventually got her home but 3 mile run took over an hour of stops & starts.
    Any suggestions please or have I answered it already??
