hi guys,i took my golf out today and got just up the road when it went a bit lumpy but i thought it was just where it may have got wet etc from where i took it out earlier. then about a mile down the road it just cut out as i was pulling out of a junction.now it will not start but turns over etc..it did kind of start once but wouldnt hold any revs and just cut out again.any ideas on what this may be??
