Think Zocko means petrol or diesel year, model etc could be a clue when you say as if it runs out of petrol Laughing

its a 1992 vitara JLX..i was driving it yesturday and all of a sudden the engine just cut out. i couldnt get it to start again, although it was turning over it wouldnt fire up. ive been told it could be the fuel filter or the timing belt..??

Hi Leashy I had a vitara jlx a few years ago with the same problem and after carb strip downs and god knows what else it was the immobilliser doing its own thing the words of the chap at my local garage £60 later sorted.
all the best with it. Micky Bruff
