Vauxhall Frontera cutting and fading out

[Brian David]

2 .4 petrol frontera runs ok for 15minuets then starts fading and spluttering as if lac of petrol .new fuel pump relay fitted any suggestions its M reg

Fuel pump sounds noisy but still runs when the fault comes on

[sumpy]

try when it cuts out removing the fuel cap it might be pressurizing the tank, or clean the fuel filter, chances are its dirty,

[Brian David]

Already tried that cheers sumpy

Could well be the fuel pickup in the tank partially blocked or a loose fitting allowing air to be drawn in or a blocked filter or a faulty pump or carb/fuel injection problem.

Try the coil. When a coil is faulty it will usually run fine until it becomes hot and then it will begin to break down, your spark will become intermittent and the car will splutter and lose power, not through lack of fuel, but through lack of spark to the plugs.
