the vehicle will literally shut off as i'm driving it will go dead and will not resart right away. when i start cranking it over it will not have check engine light or maint required light on dash lit up. when vehicle stays off for approx. 5 to 10 minutes i can turn the key on and those lights will be on and it will start. i have had three sensors replaced and some work done on the main harness to the computer worked on, and i thought we found it when we found the connection very gunked up but it started up again. the mech has checked out the vehicle and is fairly sure its not the computer this is an old vehicle but up to now is been worry free and still runs great (when its running)

dies intermittantly while driving. Engine will not crank over until check light flashes once. Could be up to 2 to 3 minutes. While on freeway engine loses power but regains it after hitting the foot pedal a few times. Problem has progressively gotten worse. Checked connections on controller and replace ASD relay. Don't know if that solved problem yet.
