Just got my Willy back on the road, she ran perfectly then suddenly no power, left her to idle and she ran again for about 10 miles and then cut out.
Changed fuel filter, and she has run for 300 kms perfectly, then today, coughed, and no revs, recovered then died.
Any suggestions welcome please

Could be a loose earth wire somewhere. Do all the electrics go out when it cuts off?
There are a couple of major earth points to look after.

Thanks, all electrics fine apart from connector to fuel pump. All sorted now fingers crossed.

Worth looking at the MAP sensor, the wiring & the vacuum hose to it as well. If anything to do with that is at fault it will cut the engine
