My car has been cutting out like there wasnt enough fuel going to the engine ...Seems to only do it once the car is warmed up. I pulled the code and got

1443: Evaporative Emission Control System Vaccum System, Purge Control solenoid or Vapor Management Valve Malfunction..

....Any help on where to start looking would be great, the car is a 96 GT 5spd,
Thanks GUYS

The behaviour fits that code... The EECS consists of a management valve (above front wheel passenger side), and the charcoal canister/purge control solenoid (behind rear driver side wheel). The system is designed to catch fuel vapor, store it, and then burn it off when the engine is running. I would check the solenoid first because it is pretty much exposed to the elements whereas the VMV is protected by the body of the car and splash guard.
