97,000 km, intermittent failure, engine cuts out but will restart
immediately or within a short time.  Fuel pump, filter and tank filler
pipe replaced.  No fault codes showing.  Distributer replaced 1 yr ago,
ignition interlock installed through recall (1 month ago).  Local
dealer nable to identify the problem.

Carry a spark plug with you.

When it cuts out and doesen't immediately restart, pull a plug boot and
put it on the plug then lay that on the engine and try starting it, see if
there is spark.

The crank position sensor can sometimes fail to where when it gets hot
it's intermittent.  Mine did in my '94.  If there's no CPS signal you will
get no spark.
