Hey Guys,

Well, after 2 solid trouble -free years she's giving me problems...any oppinions on the problem?

-Driving away from home yesterday, the Raider suddenly acted like it was out of fuel.

-1-200 RPMs for 10 secs, then died.(Throttle made it choke worse)
-1-200 RPMs for 5 secs then died.
-1-200 RPMs for 5 secs then died.
-Cranking with no start.

-30 minute wait.Then started up to 400 RPM then instantly died.

-Another wait , nothing but cold cranking.

My IAC I believe was already U/S, it has been idling on the throttle stop screw for years. Just plane acted like I was running out of gas - no amount of throttle would increase the revs, only act to choke it up more. Fuel filter is new ( 12 months )

EDIT:
From a previous poster who had similair probs." I determined the most likely cause of the problem was in the control relay circuit--which includes the ignition switch, the control relay, and the ECU. After doing some voltage and ohm checks, I found the Ignition switch and the control relay were OK. I believe I have a bad ECU . To get the Monte running temporarily I decided to short pins 2 & 3 of the control relay, that in effect bypasses a power transistor in the ECU (I believe that particular power transistor is faulty). It worked!

Um, how does one short these pins to see if this is my problem too?
