Check the ignition relay (forwardmost "black box"  a little over 1" in 
diameter...can be square if already replaced with aftermarket) on the right 
hand side of the engine compartment. Did the tachometer skip somewhat before 
this happened? I've had this occur at least twice on my '78 MGB. If I 
remember correctly, you can disconnect the relay and place a jumper wire 
betweer the Browns. The car should now start and run if the relay is 
defective.

the key returns to the run postion the car cuts out."
