Running out of steam
My 944 N/A wants to die and refuses to start when it has been driven more than 10 or 15 minutes, leaving me stranded on any roadway that I have to stop.
Has anyone had this warm engine no-run problem. When it runs, it purrs like a kitten. Fresh cap, rotor, wires, plugs recently installed. Passed CA smog with flying colors.

Pop in your spare DME relay and see if the problem resolves.

Other possible causes:
1) Reference/Speed sensor are dying (Connectors or the actual sensors) 2) DME computer has bad solder joints Others as well, but those come to mind right away.
