Going into limp mode? Power loss? was created by invincible

My jimny is cutting out when driving, feels like no power, then all of a sudden pulls again. Cut out this morning on way to site for longest time, busy a66 and no pull offs.I have a 1.6 that I desperately need to fit but think I need to find out the problem on this 1.3 before fitting as the fault will just follow? Im thinking electrical, perhaps a wire earthing? Guy in garage put snap on, diagnostic computer on it and it showed nothing? I need to get to a railway station later a prob wont make it. Maybe this engine is just about to die, any ideas on what electrical parts I could check, id be well grateful. Cheers in advance, liam

If it's not giving a code and is intermittent I would suggest coil packs and leads. Most other things will give you a code.

Could be crankshaft position sensor, these don't show a code, but the engine usually stops for a few minutes until it cools down.

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

That's the ones. They sit under the black cover on the top of the motor. Dead easy to swap.
