Re: [T3] another day, another failure


i'm having the same problem, believe it or not. after
having the heads and pistons and the voltage regulator
replaced, i finally had a chance to take her
somewhere, so the hubby and i went downtown SF to grab
some cheesesteak sandwiches (YUM!) and on the way over
there, we ran into some traffic on the freeway. well
the car started stalling a little bit, just kind of
hesitating as we'd get rolling, but i didn't really
think anything of it (we were on a bit of an incline).
well after we got off the freeway, she was doing it
again, and then died on me quite a few number of times
at stop lights. right now, the idle is perfect.  

what could this be? almost everything in the motor is
new...  ??
