Duttons - Cruisewirral Sponsor have all the Diagnositics for Fiat.

See Sponors forum for Details.

Sounds like a Sensor or Fueling problem.

if this has happened straight after running ur tank empty u may have blocked something (pump,filer,injectors) just get it to the pros mate as they'll find it straight away for ya instead of u taking your fuel system to bits,

it may be a sensor/ecu problem tho

Had the same problem on my old corsa....

problem was that the lambat sensor was faulty, got it replace for pennies and car was fine after that.
