Any advice on a forum article I should go to, or advice on how to troubleshoot this would be appreciated.
I have replaced the fuel filter and fuel pump, as I originally thought it was a fuel issue. Now I am not sure. Thank you! |

I suggest starting by looking around in the engine bay. Look along all of the wires in there for any visible breaks or kinks. Check the connections for loose plugs. Make sure ground connections are clean and tight.
Then check all of the hoses. Are any broken? Any disconnected? Any of them soaked with oil and cracking? Generally a sudden loss of power is caused by something getting disconnected. This isn't exactly that scenario, but it's close. So look for stuff that may have gotten disconnected. --DD |
