Hi Debbie

I had the same problem on Tuesday night. It is probably the fuel injector. Remove fuse 19 (20 amp) from fuse box, turn engine over, it should start and then cut out. Put fuse back in correct place then fire up. This worked for me and is a handy trick. Let me know how you get on. Email me on slwright 1977@hotmail.com.

Thanks
