I later tried it again and it is difficult to start and the bodywork is rattling quite loud and i have just noticed that there is blackening on the inside of the petrol cap on the lip before the actual tank looks almost like a chemical reaction
Check the petcock and ensure that fuel is allowed to flow. From what you're describing, it seems like the engine may be fuel starved.
Testimonial: "ok thank you i will try that"

look for a vacume leak that will cause a no idle condition it can consist of vacume lines or intake leaks good luck
SOURCE: Starts fine when cold, after running dies on idle then wont start
Sounds like the fuel filter is dirty and needing to be changed. It's cheap and easy to swap out.
SOURCE: my avenger cuts off after being driven for at least 5-30 minutes
a very common problem with these cars is the crankshaft position sensor. also camshaft position sensor. they will make the car do exactly what you described. let me know what you find
