So, lately I have been having the problem of the engine shutting off on me while driving, and some other issues with hesitation, timing going awry, etc..
It seems that the engine loses all power, and shuts off completely, for about half a second, and then returns to normal. It happens at totally random times, and seems to come and go in waves.
I have monitored the fuel system and it appears that i am spiking rich when this happens, leading me to believe that it is an issue with timing, and now with my megasquirt. Also, i have noticed periods of detonation, as if the ECU gets confused for moments.
I was wondering what others have done to remedy the problem? Has it been the crank and reference sensors? ECU?
Any help would be appreciated, and i know this I have seen posts regarding the same sort of issue; I just can't find them for the life of me.
Thanks in Advance,
Pete
