It seems like if I let it sit for an hour after driving it 45 min I can go for another 45 or so. Had the fuel pump replaced about 30k miles ago and I believe the filter is attached to the pump. I was told the filter isn't serviceable. Possible debris in line, cat, mas or wiring??? Help!!!

When the fault is 'ON', try the following:
- disconnect MAF ; it can short and kill engine. If this is the faulty part and is now disengaged, engine will start in safe mode = 2k rpm ceiling. (Check out beforehand how the MAF connector 'lock' opens)
- get a spare plug, pull off and attach it to the new coilpack, let plug rest on engine. Crank an see for spark... if u get spark, now u know that electronics work. Then its possibly fuel pump again?
- ign switch can wear out and cut off 'any time' causing blkout. How much used = mileage? Replace (60$). Are the panel lights illuminated when this occurs?
