Check the dropping resistors. They are mounted to the chassis, and the harness connects to the engine. Because the engine moves a little bit relative to the chassis, the wiring in the resistor packs have a tendency to break. There is one common wire that feeds all the resistors. If it is flaky, you will get fuel cutout. I have seen this same thing.
Start the car, and wiggle the wiring on the dropping resistors. Otherwise check the grounds under the intake plenum. |
