Hey everyone,

A few days ago I came across a problem where the car seemed hesitant to start straight away (seems to happen once the car has warmed up) .. I didn't take much notice of it, thinking that my car was on a slight angle thus causing the hard start..

Last night while I was driving the car started to jerk, revs jumped all over the place and it stalled.. After coming to a stop, I tried to start it again, but it wouldn't kick back into life.. I even pumped the throttle pedal a few times but no luck.. after a while though it just started again, once I made it home it just died again and wouldn't start..

Luckily I was able to get my friend to video tape the dash (taco revs) whilst we were driving. This is the link to the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRo9h_HF ... e=youtu.be

Any ideas what it could be, faulty fuel pump, carby problem or maybe a ignition coil which is on its way out?

Other info:
1985 Suzuki Sierra with a g16a engine, leads where replaced a month or so ago, along with fuel filter.. however fuel pump and dizzy/coil have not been replaced

Thanks for any help :)
