Ok, you are now lying.
Look at this thread:

https://www.diynot.com/diy/threads/...per-and-not-holding-the-car-video-inc.550336/

First post says: "Car - Vauxhall Vectra 1.9 cdti"

Then on this thread you say that the only car you have is a fiat 120 bhp and you've had it for 4 years.

What is it?

A Vauxhall in Fiat drags?

Or is it a failed cut and shove, half Vauxhall Cavalier, half Fiat 131 Mirafiori???

ARE YOU STUPID ? IM LOSING MY PATIENCE NOW.....

IT IS A VAUXHALL VECTRA 1.9 CDTI 120 BHP, IT HAS A FIAT ENGINE !!!!!

Lets try to clear things up.
You say you smell unburnt fuel....correct?
Have you seen any liquid fuel anywhere at all - or just smelt it?
John :)

Yes, it's like it suddenly bursts some fuel (which I suddenly smell very strong inside the car ) and then cuts right out within seconds of me smelling the fuel. . When I start it back up it quits leaking fuel and doesn't cut out again for about another 100 miles as soon as it cuts out it throws up the codes for all injector s open circuit. I delete the codes but the problem returns after a day or so

Their leaking!

Scrap yard time, not worth repairing!

Andy

Many garages have looked and confirm thats that their is no leaking from the fuel system injectors with the engine running. It leaks in bursts intermittently just before it cuts out as soon as I smell fuel the car cuts out instantly. Then it starts right back up fuel smell goes away no visible leaks and after about 100 miles the cyclee starts again

AGAIN. I WOULD NOT HAVE TOOK IT TO KWIK FIT IF IT WAS NEEDING ANY REPAIRS, I ONLY TOOK IT THERE TO GET A CLAMP CUT OFF THE EXHAUST AND UNDER BONNET PRE MOT CHECKS WHICH I ASSUMED THEY'D BE AT EAST CAPABLE O DOING
Under bonnet pre-mot checks? Why just the under bonnet checks? Is it because of the catchy advert? The one that goes "You can’t check better than a kwik-Fit under bonnet checker?" Who's going to be pre-mot checking the other 99% of mot items?

None of it makes any sense, just par for the course..
