If it was an 1989 - I would say it sounds almost like the engine management system is cutting off the fuel upon interpreting a knock.. Which isn't to say there is a knock - but - it may be reading one on a short or some other engine variance (timing - water in the fuel).. Is the management system less sensitive or more comprehensive on the 1993?.. -- J Dexter - webmaster - http://www.dexterdyne.org/ all tunes - no cookies no subscription no weather no ads no news no phone in - RealAudio 8+ Required - all the Time Radio Free Dexterdyne Top Tune o'be-do-da-day Holland Hucknall - T-Bone Shuffle http://www.dexterdyne.org/888/147.RAM
