Hi All,

My Daughter was on the Seattle freeway(LOL)yesterday afternoon traveling between 10-20 MPH, the A/C was on and the outside temp was 104 F. The car is a 1989 760 Turbo, automatic, with 114,000 miles on the clock.

The engine stumbled and died. Upon trying to restart the engine would catch, run a second or two, stumble and die. Tried to start several times with the same results. Engine temp was in the middle and there were no warning lights on before it died. A nice State Trooper pushed her to a parking lot where she phoned me for a rescue.

I arrived two hours later (after loading tools and hitching the flatbed up) and it started and ran normal. Loaded it anyway and headed home. Started and ran fine this morning.

I think I'm looking at a hot soak issue and could not find this exact symptom in the FAQ. I have a Crank Position Sensor on order that should arrive in a couple of days.

Anything else I should look for or replace?

Thanks to all,

Mike
