My c180 lost acceleration while driving but engine was running. After few meters everything stopped. It seems as if there was some fuel stoppage and what was left in there kept it running for few meters.
When I tried to start again, it stared for a min then shut down. This continued but car could not move.
I then asked for road help to go to the garage. They put it in the truck and we reached the garage. When they inclined the car down while offloading and started everything was OK. Would be it ; a problem of fuel filter ? I donot want to be in this situation again

This could well be the CPS, they can fail and go intermittent when hot and even stop, when cooled down all fine again till the next time.
