Is your battery charged and alternator working properly?
Is there water or oil on your HT leads?

just a thought.

when my engine mounts were shagged, letting the clutch out with hardly any revs rocked the engine instead of moving the car...this sometimes caused me to stall..... so I had to use more revs to pull away.

true but I aint walkin nowhere or gettin daft buses
I might have a job 2minute walk from me soon which aint bad

or where i work now might move me onto another job
with a set wage because its sh!t money and i dont like
self employment.

but if i get the job near me
i can get a gti to sit at my house so i can work on it n stuff

and i get 2yr ncb end of this month ;D
