I was driving along at about 65mph when the engine suddenly quit, just like
turning off the ignition.
No clunks, clangs, clacks, no nothing.
After I came to a comlete stop, the engine would turn over, but it acted
like the ignition was not working at all.
I did attempt to restart it while it was still moving originally, and even
pumped the gas pedal several times as a last resort as I was slowing down
(yes, the ignition was in the ON postition).
And I did try to let it start also in fifth gear while it was still moving
along at over 30mph.
The next day (outside temp was around 25 degrees F) I attempted to start
it,in the parking lot where some friend towed me, and it finally started to
fire up, like a flooded engine, but would quit immediately when I switched
from start to run with the ignition switch.
I had a friend check the spark, it sparks well. You can smell gas (the
number one spark plug was removed) but there is no hint of it even trying to
run.
Can a computer cause these symptoms?
Is there a way to check the computer to see if it is bad before actually
replacing it (they are damn expensive)?
Anyone else experience anything like this.
It is a 3.0L engine.
Thanks,
Buffalo
PS: A friend of mine just confirmed that the timing belt  is OK and that the
timing marks are all lined up.
