Re: stalling problems.

both been changed for new items. the car restarts if left for a while. the car runs perfect most of the time, no spluttering no nothing just out of the blue it will stop. could it possibly be pulling air into the fuel system somewhere before the regulator.

Re: stalling problems.

icv was changed and battery seems good. car always turns over easily. could the ignition barrel be at fault, its just that the ignition lights stay on when it stalls. clutching at straws here though.

Re: Crimping/securing battery eyelets?

that is a crimp and not designed to be soldered. A special crimping tool is needed from the look of it , it looks like maybe a six or ten mm crimp. Go to an electrical wholesaler or if you know a sparky get him to lend you his tool. It won't solder and shouldn,t be. Where are you in the world.
