Corsa B 1.4 auto cutting out - any ideas?
Discussion
Got a 1.4 Corsa B automatic with an intermittent fault - sometimes cuts out when coming back to idle (at traffic lights, say) and then struggles to re start, cranking for an age before it finally decides to come back to life l
It's an old car (1994) but low mileage and has been well maintained. Plugs, leads etc are new. Drives spot on for 99% of the time and until it decides to play up it can go for weeks/loads of miles
My Delphi diagnostics won't connect to it - I suspect that the diagnostic port wiring is defective.
Any ideas/common things to go on these? Not keen to start chucking parts at it if I can help it

It's pre-OBDII - 2001 cars are earliest for that I think.
I'd sat crank sensor too. Does the ECU light stay on whilst cranking when it doesn't start?
Delphi DS150E with the 10 pin Opel/VX adaptor should read it as far as I can tell. I'd sat crank sensor too. Does the ECU light stay on whilst cranking when it doesn't start?
I think the light does stay on but not 100%
