I could be wrong, but my car was cutting out the other day, and it was a faulty fuel relay.
The chappy in the garage started the car, and then tapped the fuel relay with a screwdriver and the engne cut out. He replaced the relay and its been fine ever since!

Moving to tech help.

As Zaust says, hard to suggest anything specific.
