silvermachine Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Hi new here.? got a lupo 1.0mpi free out of a dudes garden says it was his daughters, it stopped going years ago and it was just abandoned. Here's the rub, I got it home and it started first try with a new battery! BUT, it cuts out randomly, even while driving, just stops, the engine turns over like mad but wont fire. Then suddenly it fires or sometimes you can flatten the battery trying. Fuel pump seems fine, 410 relay changed, new plugs and leads, fresh juice, key is bent and there's only one. Wee car runs and drives beautifully when it starts.....stumped.....any ideas? Epc on dash and check engine, goes out when it starts though, please help, crackin wee car for free ?
