For some reason my Polo randomly cut out the other day.
It was driving fine but then all of sudden i got no power when i was pressing the accelerator, it felt like no petrol was getting to the engine. The car continued to run but eventually cut out.
Since then I have been unable to start it up.
The fuel pump seems to be working. I can hear it humming and felt it vibrating when I've turned the engine on.
Does anyone have any ideas what it could be?

The fuel pump seems to be working, but the pressure may be low

You can put a pressure gauge on the pump outlet before it comes to the injectors.

Check your ignition, (rotor, cap, leads) I had similar on mine and the lead on the coil had become worn and corroded and worked it’s way loose.
