93 1.1 Cutting out and wont start when hot - Rossco.p
Hi All

I have a little Pug 106 1.1XN 1993 which when cold starts first time and runs very well however after about 10 mins (ie when its hot) it then starts to cut out, then dies totally and cannot be restarted.

I removed one of the plugs when it was hot and there was NO spark? So its clearly an electrical problem.
(This model has a carb and not fuel injection)

I thought this problem might be the coil, but this has been replaced and the problem is the same, i have also checked the dizzy cap and rotor arm (these are by no means new but seem ok.. and seeing as it runs fine when cold didnt think this would be the cause? )

I dont want to start chucking money at it and buying new bits its just not worth it... has any one had the same problem or might beable to help me diagnose whats wrong??

Thanks

Sounds like the old style engine with the ignition amp mounted on the inner wing. If so then that will be the fault.
