The car either wont start at times, or cuts off at times. I recently had a fuel injection done, but the problem still exists.

When the car won't start, have you checked for spark and fuel to the engine? Has the check engine light come on?

You need to have spark to the spark plugs and proper fuel pressure to the fuel injectors. If you go to the home page, there are directions as to how to check both.
