sherbinema Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I have a 93 legacy that just started intermittently cuttingout while drive. Speed doesn’t matter. Happens when in a turn at high speeds or ifyou hit a hard bump. Car has 202,000miles on it. Not sure if the fuel pumphas ever been replaced. Looking for some ideas, before I just start replacingparts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Inspect the pinouts for the fuel harness. It comes thru the body under the rear seat thru a grommet, then there is a hatch behind the rear seat under the carpet where it plugs into the tank. 2 connectors in all.

sherbinema Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 I checked the fuel pump harness and it is ok. The symptom is more like the ignition being turned off for a few seconds and then turned back on. Sometimes it happens repeatedly and sometimes it may not happened at all. Just trying to narrow down possible causes. Anyone have any ideas on what is the cause. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtdash Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) Hi, The CEL is NOT on, correct? If it is on for a PAST issue (like an O2 sensor), check it again for new codes. I'd recommend the MAF, but they usually cause the car to stall - not cut out. And the car will die when coming to a stop. The ignition switch on these is known to fail, but I don't know - other than replacing it - how to test it. Can you make the issue occur on purpose - by driving over a bump? It sounds like a wire is shorting out,...but I can't help tell you where to look. GL, Td Edited August 20, 2014 by wtdash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 check the crank position sensor and its wires and connector. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
