Ok ..If there is anyone around now .. here is an update on my problem and if anyone can help me that would be great. I am hoping this car will get me to work tomorrow.

I have tested for spark and all is ok (on # 2 anyway) it seems that this is a fuel problem. Car runs well then either dies when driving or wont start after running for awhile. I have been playing with this thing all night.

I have posted before and had a few good answers .. I am wondering if there is a fuel regulator .. or something that would cause this intermiten fault electricaly with the fuel to the FI?

Thanks ..Bruce

Also .. I have been tring to get my temp guage and oil pressure guage to work again .. they seem to be acting up now .. I have cleaned the conection to the sensors .. and when I went to start it again .. that is when it wouldnt go.

I thought I would try this forum. My car seems to die when it gets hot. There is spark. I let it cool down a bit and it starts. Anyone wanna through some ideas at this.

Also .. I found a toggle switch under the dash. I think it is a kill switch cause when the car it running and I flick the switch .. the car dies. It is hooked up directly to a green wire with blue tracer. Right under dash by drivers right knee .. out of the main harness.

BTW this is a 77 280

Thanks ..Cheers Bruce

I never found the problem and just took out the crappy FI system and installed rebuilt SU's. The car works great now and I will never go back to FI. I think the problem was regulator issues .. but I will never know.
