greetings,
strange problem here.
while driving even at a high rate of speed, i am getting an intermittent problem with my car cutting out (shutting down). it is only a momentary cut off at this time.
.......88 vette, 74k miles. new plugs, cap, rotor, ignition module (under cap), ignition coil, new fuel filter, fuel pump pick-up sock, electronic spark control module, both maf relays replaced.
i noticed before i had my first symptoms, that once or twice the car was idling in my driveway before i replaced the electronic spark control module (located at passenger side near heater box) the first time), that i would shut the hood and the engine would very noticibly stumble, almost shutting the car down.
approx 3 weeks ago, it was happening very badly. and i barely got the car home. thinking it was the coil, i replaced it and it seemed to idle fine. i decided for some reason, to lightly "tap" on the electronic spark control module and that caused a very noticable stumble in the idle as mentioned above. i immediately replaced it but, before i did, i monitored the fuel pressure and it remained steady.
the problem creeped up today again and i am going to replace the module again, under warrantee. could this be an iac problem?....it is throwing no apparent codes as the "ses" light was coming on as in a stall and the light went out when the car "came back on again". i believe it is an electrical problem moreso than a fuel delivery problem. any ideas anyone. the car runs great except when it cuts out for "microseconds" so to speak...........thanks all!
