man u got the type of gremlin u absolutely hate diagnosing... if u swing by fever I can hook up a consult 2 to it and scan for stored codes..

after that you should ride around with a fuel pressure gauge hooked up that you can see at all times...

this is usually the #1 cause of what you just described..



other than that.. u got a gremlin

 

Check your fuseable links by the fusebox on the passenger side in the engine bay. If they have a bad connection this same problem will happen. It happened to me in my 95' nissan pickup as I was going over the skyway... Not a fun experience, but I knew immediately what it was. Wiggle them, then try to start the car or vice versa... If it cuts out, new links are in order.

 

no maf dying, it just says peace out


martin if i havent located said grimlin by thursday night ill have to swing by if the car will permit it...

and ill check the fuseable links on the passenger side, but i already checked all the fueses and wiring associated with each box...

 

you said that last time........

 

lol i know nucka

 

dude, i went through this with my stock KA and I felt like a dumb ass when I fixed it. Have you checked the quality of your battery terminals, and if the wires are frayed at all near the terminals? My ground cable was frayed and i just cut it a little shorter where the cable was good, clamped her down good, and was running fine. Dunno, just my experience

 

ill check them big mike

 

well brother brought home the alt checking thing from his job, and it passes with flying colors... so im back to the CAS right now because of what my tach does when the car is acting up. anyone has a spare for a SR laying around i can borrow to test?

 

i had this exact same problem i was just driving along and my tach freaked out and the car just died right in the middle of traffic. Anyway when i lookd under the hood and had my girlfriend crank the car sparks started flying from the little dropping ressitor cause it was just sort of laying around so i grounded i never had the problem again. So you might check it

 

+1 had the same problem, terminals tend to corrode alot in 240sx. But just check that if its lose just go get a new one.
