I have a 70 squareback (fuel injection) and I can't figure out why the car will run for an hour and then in the middle of driving it shuts down. Then I can't even start it for a half hour. It turns over but won't continue running, like it's not getting enough fuel. Could it be the pressure sensor? I checked the resistance across both coils of the sensor and they are both correct at 90 ohms and 350 ohms. But, I read that sometimes the rod between the coils will get stuck and will give this erratic behavior. What about the fuel pump? Can the pump work sometimes and not work at other random times like the problem I'm having? I have yet to check if I have 28psi in the fuel system. Maybe the regulater is not working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
