05-23-2011 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) got it running - see end post.
75 2.0 with d-jet injection. just for a brief history, similar happend last week, and i replaced the coil- it had leaked. Started fine, idle was good cold, - last week it began to idle rough and would just drop off, once i got it running again, it was really rough, but i got it home, - found the coil was going bad, replaced, seemed to run fine. - sat 4 days , decided to drive it today. It started fine, ran great, idle was smooth first 2 stops, 10 minutes after starting it, pulled up to a light, and idle just dropped out, had to feather it, kept it running thu the light, pulled into a parking lot, where it stopped. Could not get it to start again, even 20 minutes later. Has new coil, points etc, fuel pump is running fine, MPS is newer, so are all hoses and injectors, fuel lines and filter. I really think it is not fuel but electrical,- would a temp sensor cause it to begin to run rough, not want to idle properly when warmed up??
