Driving to work this morning and my 2.0 D-jet suddenly cut out. Tach dropped to ZERO. It fired back up fairly quickly being still in gear and rolling. Did this twice.
Made it to work and when I went out to start it, would not fire. Can hear the fuel pump and have fuel. Ideas where to start looking appreciated. Some more info that may have impact: Optima red battery that has a bad cell or something... drains overnight to around 75%. Other than that, cranks strong. Thanks, steve (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

Or a bad connection (in the 14 pin plug or engine harness that connects to the relay board) that when moved, disconnects or re-connects itself. Time will tell. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
