Helo! I have an Opel Corsa 94 and yesterday, at the moment I arrived at a parking lot, the engine suddenly stalled. I started it again and the vehicle jerked and decelerated, when I was rather accelerating it. It seemed as if it choked, but anyway I managed to enter the parking lot and park my car. It left it there for around two hours and, when I returned and started the engine, it worked perfectly. What might have happened? Please help me!
Check if the ground wire is placed correctly and in proper conditions. If it is not that, check the spark plugs wires; if one of them is loose, push it downwards until you hear a clacking sound. After that, check that the battery light on the dashboard turns on when placing the key in the ignition, and it then disappears when you start the engine. If it keeps failing, it must be the alternator.
