Are you turning the key anti-clockwise in the ignition when you stop by any chance?

do you mean it drives ok but when you stop it cuts out?
if so does it do it more when the car is warmed up to running temp?

right ok so it starts but the engine cuts out when driving?
does it idle without cutting out?
what is the normal situation when it cuts out?

so the car is running fine but the engine cuts out when you are driving or when you drop to idle ?  because you say engine is cutting  out when you "drive and stop engine"  doesn't quite make sense i think i know what you mean does it cut out cleanly or does it splutter then die ?
