Hi all, love to help but not sure what the problem is from the description  :embarrassed:(do I need a interpreter :wink:).
If the engine is cutting out while driving, poss faulty fuel pump relay?, try wiggling the wires on the engine and ign coil while the car is running to check for loose connections. (stay clear of the coil and ign ht leads :shocked:)
