I had a problem with the engine cutting out at speed on my 90 C2. Drifting off the the shoulder on the LIE was not a pleasant experience. Someone on this board suggested the DME relay may be at fault. Bingo! Replaced the relay with the new 993 numbered part and it works fine. It is slightly taller. My wrench says that he's seen a few similar incidents where it fails. I removed the cover on the old one and it has a faint smell identical to a heater relay in an 84 I had that overheated. It may be wise to keep a spare.
