'91 Dx Stalling and no start probem!

Has anyone ever had this problem?:

My Dx stalls out totally dead while I am driving, not any different than if you turn the key off. No sputtering, no warning just quits.

Sometime it will restart on its' own, sometime I can restart before reaching the roadside.


I have replaced:

1. The Ingiter switch

2. The coil

3. Have checked fuel pressure at the time when this occurs, pressure remains strong... will flood if no start

4. Have had to replant patches of my hair!!!


Help??

Engine compartment has FC-1000 Jcaobs Ignition system with 8.5mm Jacobs wires.

>>> AT TIME OF NOSTART, THERE IS NO SPARK AT COIL <<<

JACOBS CHECKS OUT GOOD.

what condition is the ing sw in? is the car high milages, and the sw worn. see if you can run jumper wire (hot wire, the sw.) pass the ign of the switch. I storngly belive that it may have to do with a worn switch.
My gtx did the same thing, i didnt know the cause, eventually it overloaded the fuse box, and melted it a bit, then i found the problem.

Oh yea, ive had this MULTIPLE times.... all i do is make sure i get to the side of the road, wait a few minutes, makin sure every thing electrical is off, then itll start back up right away...

Thats for me at least, i dont know how to fix it, but when i get money im gettin a new alt., ground wires, and maybe a battery...

A year ago my car would just randomly die while in the middle of a turn or at a stoplight. I checked my spark plugs, the gaps were to big and i guess there wasn't enough power to jump the gap. donno if that helps.
