not a leak, all the fuel lines are new and been checked today it was pissing out the exaust though before it died

i haven't seen the car for weeks other than to take a set of keys into the garage as the immobilizer wasn't working. it just happened when the mechanic was taking the car to the bodyshop for its final polish after body repairs that it packed up, think he's a bit cheesed off as he now has to get it back to his garage again to sort it out for the third time
