just what the topic says... anyone had this problem... i hit a good bump before the car warms up all the way and it kinda dies and almost sounds like a backfire without the big noise.... my lights don't go dim or radio shut off or anything... the car has never shut off all the way when it does it... it doesnt do it alot like 3 or 4 times a week... just wondering on what i could check out to fix this problem
 
Try pulling the stored codes to see if anything comes up that will give you a starting point, then look at a wiring diagram. The EEC power relay supplies power for a lot so check that area as well.
 
I would be goose testing wires. Something like a bad primary power cable connection could create funkiness, as can a poor 10 pin connector (um, well) connection.

Good luck.
