[doc] Stalling After 5 minutes

["James Macpherson" <james.macpherson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I think this might be the problem I first thought was the fuel pickup
problem I emailed about last week.

After more investigation I realised the car doesn't sputter or cough
like a fuel starvation problem it just stops like you have switched the
key off.  So I did so further tests.

If I run the car from cold within about 5 minutes the car with stop and
not restart.  
There is no spark at the spark plug but after about 5 minutes more the
car will restart and will run without
problems for the rest of the journey.  Then once left for a few hours it
will do the same again.

I've got to the point of running it on the driveway for 5 mins letting
it stop and waiting another 5 mins then starting it again before I can
go anywhere.

Anyone got any ideas what can cause no spark after 5min then fix itself
again?
