Good Hump day morning all.

It is raining here. I have my El Camino in the body shop to fix a few cosmetic rust worm issues. Nothing major just cutting out the cancer before it gets bad. Kinda like going to a dermatologist. Of course with the Elky in the hospital I am driving the 911. The dang poltergeist came back yesterday. After lunch with Richard yesterday I went to the other end of the shopping center and went to the grocery store to get some fruit for me at work. Everything was running great until I am waiting on the LOOOONG red light at 33rd and Broadway. That is THE busiest intersection in Edmond. Suddenly the engine went to 2,200 dropped to 2,000 and then just quit.

I managed to get it restarted but it is like someone is just killing the ignition at random. I drove back to the office and fortunately is is moderate traffic and 60 MPH most of the way. The engine would quit and I would just pump the gas because there is not much else to try and it would spring to life and run great then off.

It was a only after it had been warm from lunch, a restart for groceries, then back on the road. Yesterday afternoon I drove home with zero issues.

This morning just a mile from the office it started the shut off routine. I will spend some time in the technical forum and see if they have any ideas. It is just strange.
