Engine cutting out
by Arnold Layne » Thu Jun 20, 2013 9:25 am
Took off with the '90 yesterday, went about 1/4 of a mile and it skipped real quick like you flashed the switch off and back on, wasn't really sure if I did it with the throttle or not. Drove about 6 miles and shut it off for a couple hours. Took off and it did it again after about 3 blocks, just off and back on real quick, went another 1/2 mile or so, got to the edge of town, got on it a little in 4th and it goes dead, no miss, no sputter, nothing, just like you turned the switch off. I stayed off the pedal for a few seconds while it slowed down, stepped back into it and it's awake again like nothing happened. Drove it like I had just stolen it the rest of the way home and it didn't miss a beat. Does that sound like an FSS or electric gremlin wanting to make an appearance? Thanks
