on going non turbo shadow problem/stalling

[turzbo]

hi all, for the last 2 years ive been driving the shadow it has been alright, in sept i rebult a 2.2, it was a 2.5, and just befor that did a 5 speed conversion, for the last 4 or 5 months the car has developed a stalling problem, it does it hot or cold, idleing or driving. Every thing is perfect and then the tack just dies,cant start it right after it happens, only after a min or so can i start it and drive. in that few mins of down time i have done a quick codes check and sometimes it flashes once and thats it, the most recent time i couldent get it to flash the light at all. have recently checked most sencers, and had to replace the ias. when i can get the coeds to show they are mostly for ac, egr, and perge canister, and 13 which i think has somethig to do with the map(all vac lines new) just befor this i had a bad idle problem that took me 2weeks of on off searching for what turned out to be a computer connection problem, the stud in the computer pulled out, glued it back in clean contacts and it was fine. any imput is a big help as i am still learning the commin problems for the shadows.


thanks

sounds like the pick up plate in the dist but seems you have some other issues too

[turzbo]

figured thet the hep would work or it wouldnt, didnt see how it would be a intermintant thing as its a one wire sending unit. but i could be wrong.

they get hot, stop working, cool off then work again sometimes

[turzbo]

would that also cause the no codes problem as well?

i think i am having the same prob in my 1991 shadow.i think my prob is the stage 5 ecu my stock ecu ran fine in the car and when i switched it out for the stage 5 it will run fine and the check eng light will go off and the car dies and wont start tell the light comes back on and you got to cycle the ign on and off a few times to get the light back on
