Hi,
I have been researching this problem for awhile now and no fix. Its been getting worse. I have an 89 LX with some mods. Problem is I crank the car up, takes about 5 times and it starts up. Then start to move and will randomly die. Completely. All power, lights, everything is off. I turn key to off, then back to on, hear the fuel pump working, and lights, radio, a/c, etc come back on. Takes about another 5 times to start up. I've tried to let it warm up. still completely loses power and dies. While i'm driving, turning, backing up. Today, died 5 times on the way to church but drove home fine. I have researched everything here and to no avail. I have replaced with new distributor, with PIP and module. New coil, and fuel relay. but car still dies. Pulled codes and get 44 and 94 which are more related to vacuum/smog than car dieing. Had battery and alternater checked, they're fine. I really think its electrical, the way everything just dies, and have no power. Any suggestions? Please help as this is my daily driver and feel like i'm just a sitting duck when it dies out on the open road. Thanks, you guys are awesome.
