2002 Vauxhall Astra coughs & slutters then clears

Car: Vauxhall Astra
Year: 2002
Variant: 1.6 Comfort
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
Whilst driving my Astra suddenly coughs and splutters and dies. After several attempts to restart, it suddenly springs to life again. Used engine cleaner (Redex) but not helped.

It may be something in the fuel line causing a blockage. I would replace fuel filter as a precaution
