My ol Conversion van kept dying on me.... :cya:going down the road or the driveway, never very consistent. Finally DID notice this trend of dying out in turns, on bridges, on my boss's dirt driveway... only AFTER replacing the TFI twice, cleaning the IAC, TPI and god knows what else:banghead: and threatening to burn the old girl :angryfiredid I think to check near the back of the motor at the coil and discover the hotwire just dangling at the end of the molex connector , barely touching the thread of a wire hanging out of that connector. :shakehead Somewhere, somehow, and probably of noones fault of my own, it got yanked from its comfortable abode, likely while I was wrestling with the wiring harness amidst installing a new alternator and air pump. :swear:I soldered in a new connection, put the bugger back on there and drove 'er like I stole 'er over every bridge bump and pothole with no problems!!! :bananasmiNow I can go back to working on my chrysler Lebaron...Life as it should be.
