Are you able to restart after it stalls? Could be the idling speed is too low.

Hi,
The idling is fine.
Where is the throttle & IAC?

We have noticed that where is power from the coilpack once you have start it but when she cuts out & if we try again there is no spark.

What can that be?

No sparks means you could have a fault with the crank sensor. Check for trouble codes.
