You appear to have a bad stop solenoid.
To verify it's the culprit , remove it .Careful with the piston & spring inside. Refit it without the innards & connect power supply, otherwise there will be fault code.
Now start & run the car. The ECU & the injection pump has some arrangement when the key turned to off position, it will shut the engine without the stop solenoid.
I have done this and ran the car for few weeks until I got the new solenoid.

The stop solenoid is not used to stop the engine under normal running conditions, it is stopped by the ECU cutting fuel via the quantity servo. The stop solenoid is just a backup to this. Running the engine without an operating stop solenoid is not a very bright idea.

Temporary, just to make sure the culprit is the stop solenoid.

If the car runs with bypassed stop solanoid then obviously it was that! So then will go out and by a new one but untill I know what the cause is I'm not throwing money at it left right and centre buying bits after bits for no reason

Having difficulty getting the stop solanoid off tho any advice ?

They can be awkward, think its 15/16 th in thin walled socket/ ring spanner. Or am I thinking of the oil pressure sensor @wammers ?

See post #5 do you have power at the solenoid when ignition on

Its bit of a hassle with intake manifold in place. But doable with an open ended wrench 23 mm or 24 mm , insert with slant. Take care it will slip .

Or a hammer and chiesel if you really want to feck it. Better still use a hammer and screwdriver, then you will feck the screwdriver as well

Or just take the intake manifold off and do it properly!

I was going to say that but it seemed too obvious. Only takes 10 min ish.

Sling a chain around it and drag it out with somebody else's RR, in low gear so you can be sure it'll at least tear the pump out and then there is no problems accessing the solenoid..

Failing that get a bed spanner and a large hammer to adjust it to the correct size.-

Hi guys God this is dragging stop solanoid replaced and took for nice drive and cut out again oh this is getting tiring

Is there any funny behaviour from the temp gauge?

Did you have any air in the clear plastic pipe again?

Had air in clear pipe but bleed the engine and run for few minutes and cut out no temp gauge seems fine and normal this does seem to get up to temp very quickly
