I am reposting for my husband as his other message was farther down. ANY assistance would be greatly appreciated. Does anyone have any other idea what could cause it to not run?
Here is a recap of what has been happened and what has been checked/replaced...
"I was experiencing intermittant 'stumbling' and an occasional complete engine stop. A few minutes on the side of the road and it would run fine. The tach would drop to zero when this happened. I did a full ABS stop and the car died and will not restart."
--I have replaced the RPM sensor.
--Checked all the fuses, sprayed every electrical connector I can find under the hood with electronic cleaner.
--I pulled all the relays out of the tray and inspected the PC boards and all were pristine.
--The relay near the ABS computer (radio supp.?) opens and closes with key on/off.
--Just before it died, I replaced the distributor cap and rotor and changed the oil.
--The ground strap at the motor mount on the drivers side is in tact, but the passengers side is broken. I used some heavy wire to connect between top bolt of mount and the lower bolt. Still no start.
--7/21/03 Replaced the ignition control module with the Bosch part, per prior posting, still no spark.
--Coil? The local auto parts chain 'tested' it and their readings showed intermittant 'oks'. He wanted to sell me one, but their machinery and technicians were also in question.
HELP!
Thanks again
Mark's Wife ;-)
