    Engine cut out on me yesterday....

    i'm not a fan or knowlegeable on type 1 engines (mines a fype 4) so check your fuel pump is working - i presume you have a mechanical pump on this van? mine's electric so easy to check, i'd have thought blocked jet would restrict running rather then prevent it, it sounds like this isn't firing...

    Engine cut out on me yesterday....

    so find out if you have spark or fuel then it's one of them, just 'cos your tank has fuel it don't mean it's getting there...... just 'cos the plugs are new don't mean they're sparking.

    Engine cut out on me yesterday....

    have you got a spark after it refuses to start? check this, it can only be fuel or spark if it started, dodgy fuel pump or blocked lines/carb or no spark be methodical.

    charcoal canister i think!!!

    they were used in america to reduce emmisions, you can junk it and pipe straight from engine to air filter i did exactly that, more room and looks tidier too.
