1990 PA Electra and My mechanic
Here's the problem...My 1990 Electra will suddenly cut out on me while driving or idling. It doensnt make any noise...no choking, sputtering...not a peep. It happened this past week and 2 weeks prior to that. It has 110,000 miles on it. Two weeks ago I was on the highway and the everything went dead. The lights, radio and engine. I threw the car into nuetral and tried to restart it. After several attempts it started again. On Tuesday I was sitting in the car while it was idling. Totally shut off on me again. After a few minutes it restarted. I took it to my mecahic yesterday and he suggested I put in a new electronic ignition module, a new IAC and a new distributor (with cap and rotor). Before I put money into this, please let me know if any of these may help the situation or if he's just blowing smoke up my a**. The ECM was replaced two weeks ago. Oxygen sensor was replaced abt 2 yrs ago. I dont want this to become a money pit. Thanks again for all of your help.
