OK, I'm not too good with modern petrol engines. Why are you sure it's
not a fuel problem? No leaks in the fuel lines, fuel filters clean
etc?

Does it cut out in particular circumstances eg, when hot/cold, on a
hill, when idling etc? When it cuts out have you checked to see if
there is a spark (yes I know it's difficult if it cuts out on the
road).

My car (xantia 99 exclusive) kept giving more gas when I held in the clutch
and then it could die in seconds. It was something controlling the "idle
running" of the engine.. Not expensive but F..G annoying...lol. At least
until they found out what it was...
