    Need help!!! Car is stalling when i dont accelerate and when im
    driving it starts jerking. Left car for 24 hrs came back to it and it
    was fine, drove for minutes no probs. left car for around half an hour
    went to drive it and was doing the same thing. Then after a few
    minutes problem went away, turned off engine for couple of minutes
    then it was not working again. It is a petrol model. Sure i never put
    diesel in it as I put fuel in car day before and drove it for miles so
    certain thats not the problem.
    Have been driving the car about as after driving car through jerking
    and stalling for 10 mins it goes away. Seems to me that it is a very
    minor problem. Seeing as its after xmas dont wanna put in a garage,
    have tried changing ht leads, didnt resolve issue. Suince i dont know
    mucj bout cars have to think logically and am considering changing
    fuel filter, do you think this will resolve the problem>? or any other
    ideas?
    Appreciate any help

    Sounds like petrol pump.when it gets hot the bellows inside are so weak
    that it is not getting full mount pertol , so try and see what pressure
    you got at pump.could be plugs breaking down when hot ,so try pump
    first,chris addlestone surrey.( i have to open )
