im getting tired of trying to decipher why my car keeps torturing me by breaking! think a rebuild maybe in order :)

 

i stopped running the car as a daily for a week, after buying a van, took the corrado out for a run before i was going to take it of the road, brilliant. Then a couple of days later took it out again and it dies

 

the story

 

went to town, saw my friend amy, gave her a wave then started driving out of town. Got a phone call from amy (ive left my lights on have you got some jump leads?) i said il pull over now and have a look. Luckily i pulled over by a body shop who lent me a battery booster, but with no charge :( . i said do you want a lifty? she junmped in and i headed toward the body shop (to drop it back off)

 

the problem

 

as i was driving back the abs light kept flickering, it stopped flickering when i got it going over 3k but in town conditions and everything it was acting up...it became a little juddery as well, then just as i was about to turn into the body shop it died. As in the engine switched itself off and all the lights stayed on. it was low on juice, so i put more in and when i tried turning the key, nothing is happening.

 

i tried jumping it on the tow home and there was a massive flamming backfire and the car seemed to run for a while, havent tried anything else since, im still upset at her, its a 1992 1.9 g60, serviced a few months back. can anyone help me again...?
