Hi

just wondering if somebody could shed a bit of light on a running problem i have with and L reg fiat cinquecento single point injection
i have recently bought this car and has been fine for about a month but now it keeps cutting out na dsometimes will not start.
i have checked all the usual things like the fuel pump and fuel filter map sensor plug and ht leads and they are all working as they should be i have have however put it down to fuel stavation because i broke down today ae some traffic lights and i pulled the ful inlet pipe off and cranked the engine over and there seemed to be alot of ait in this pipe,i cranked the engine over untill i got a clear flow of fuel from the pipe refit it and it started fine and got me home but by the time i got home it did the same thing cut out and wouldnt start untill i repeated the proceess i explained.What could be causing this to happen?
