ok...
it died while driving about 27mph. just about to go to idle. all of the sudden car dies. Tach drops. All ELECTRONICS WORK. Coil Pack replaced 2 months ago, had it tested yeaterday...that was good. Put new Ignition Module in yesterday $103.00! Wasnt the problem... My next step is to try a used computer with the same service number. If that doesnt work... last option is to replace the crank sensor but thats a pain.

it was a really smooth road. warm sunny day about 50F. Roads damp from snow... Just got back from a 2hr trip from Manitowoc to Oshkosh back to Manitowoc WI. Shut car off for about 1 hr. Started her back up and died a block and a half later.
Have you verified the 20 amp fuse under your glove box is not Blown, If it is you will get no fire or fuel, have you tried putting a small (instrument panel) bulb with prongs bent straight into the fuel injector harness right were it plugs into one of your injectors? Will it light up?? If not probably gonn be that fuse. Let us know..
I find the bolt easy to remove, can do it from the driver'* seat. Putting it back on to 219 ft-lb is more difficult.
Have heard of the sensor being replaced without removing the balancer but don't think I would want to try it.

we might have something here. can you hear your fuel pumps prime when you turn on the ignition?
