I've had similar things happen from fouled plugs, bad coolant temp sensor, vacuum leaks, and when my VAF came unplugged once. Are you running megasquirt? If so, vacuum and VAF shouldn't matter. How old is your fuel filter? Fuel pump?

Did you check you oil level? (Stupid question I know). And 2ndly i would agree to check your fuel pump. If all of your pipes are still in order & there's no major leaks I would lean to a fueling issue these motors don't just stop running how is your timing belt tension as well?---Has ClubProtege helped you in someway? show your support by Contributing--- Click Here---

hate megasquirt.
fuel filter and pump went in when I built the car.
didn't feel like a charge pipe went but it was too dark to look. besides, don't these things not run if you blow a charge pipe?
timing belt tension is fine.sigpic

ripped on it into third from a light, car was running awesome. 1/8th mi later, no power in any gear, came to a stop and died. would start, idle for a second, and die, especially if I tried to give it any throttle. basically acting like a blown charge pipe or the AFM was unplugged. ~10 minutes later, starts up and runs fine, though now it sounds like someone dumped a bucket of bolts in the cylinder head. probably the HLAs telling me to get ****ed
didn't have a chance to look at it yet because a) it was dark and b) I would have been late to work, but does anyone have an idea of what the **** happened?
This happened to my B2600i truck (bucket of bolts under the valve cover) when an injector stuck open and washed the HLAs of their oily goodness so I'm trying to figure out what else could cause that noise :/-Jack

I feel bad for my BG she's been sitting for almost a week (other than the fuel pump R&R and road test)...been slacking on making my parents an offer to borrow their spare car for the winter (as it was offered to me about 2 weeks ago), buuuuuuuut now it seems my sisters truck has blown the transmission and they'll be using my parents spare car for the winter now :/
So I probably won't be driving much this winter haha, if I do, it'll be on the nice days really don't feel like dishing out $$ for getting tires swapped around and an alignment considering I have that snapped retaining nut for my inner LCA bolt and wanting to finish up with the coilover sleeve install on the front... I also doubt an alignment will help the car stay straight in low-friction situations with that LCA bolt.-Jack

bucket of bolts noise was the HLAs being extra pissed off due to low oil and it being ****ing cold out. added a quart of oil when I left work this morning and it was back to normal.
the no power/not running issue was the AFM, though I'm not sure if it was the door sticking (like what happened to Brandon's 4WD with the B-code) or from the light oil mist on the internals. either way, it was something stupid and the car's fine.sigpic
