have you checked the fuel pump?

fuel is getting to the engine. took pipe off n into a bottle and on turnover fills the bottle, and ive check the spark plugs. does scoobies have a fuel cut-off switch??? as i hit the left eyebolt quite hard when i piulled into a layby b4 hand got 500m b4 engine died.

yes its on the drivers side just behind the strut

round black thing dont realy look like a switch but just push the top of it anyway

well i think thats it any way

also have you checked the fuses

Engine coolant temperature sensor. I bet it will start from cold but not from hot or semi warm.

pressed the fuel cut switch, checked fuses. and still no joy.
starts for a couple of seconds and then dies. so will have try and take it to a garage. AA came out and couldnt fix it. didnt help that he's never work on 1 b4!!!!

update.

now all sorted and it was all down to to MAF!!!!
now only thing is and thats for sunny weekend weather to go driving!!!!

was just gonna say that, my friend had same prob, car started for a few secs and then wud cut out,replaced maf, flying.. hope shes good now man ;)

yeah she is but ill save her till sat:p the AA didnt check for it when they came out, just said "could" be the relays!! then off on a flatbed to subaru, where they found it strainght away:)
