[Shotimes] Oh no ! now they both do it!!

If the batter is new, I would check (1) the terminal connections, and
possibly more importantly, (2) the entire battery cable setup.

There have been a number of folks with older SHOs that have had the battery
cable setup go bad. You can make your own, but last year John Semchena
bought one from a dealer for $168 for his '94. With the age of the car the
cable could be getting pretty sad by now.

Battery is less than a month old.I tried a different approach.FUEL....
To me, the evil one was acting like he was vapor locking.A similar feeling
like a carburated automobile.Under supervision by the SHO lady I replaced
the fuel filter.She test drove later and the problem surprizily went
away......I hope....
          I have a question about the purge canister our cars have.
Can the vacuum lines get clogged?And if so, would they cause a vapor lock
type scenario.I do know they have a solenoid type system inline that opens
and closes from an electrical sensor.Reading material I go a searching.

I would suspect the battery myself. The dash lights are the key tip-off. A
<br>bad CPS won't effect them. I have had weird EATC and stereo problems as
well <br>as engine troubles from a low voltage condition. I would follow
Ron's advice <br>first<br><br>Why can we rule out electrical? How old is the
battery?<br>.<br>.<br><br><br><br>> Good morning all,<br>>  Bart decided to

For a while now Snow has had a little problem of " dying " and then <br>>
restarting after a couple of trying attempts......seems like the fuel <br>>
pedal is just dead..<br>><br>>  Today Bart started doing the exact same
thing, same way.......tach dies <br>> and the Christmas tree effect of dash

with dat?<br>>  Fuel pressure regulator..?? maybe??<br>>  Not electrical at
all.....so we can rule 
that one out on the two of <br>>
them....<br>_______________________________________________<br>Shotimes
