Sudden power loss at the peak of a steep hill. I could get it running but it would backfire or maybe misfire (I dunno what eother really sounds like) when starting, and halfway between letting off the clutch and pressing on the gas it would die again. Mechanic says there is spark at the plugs, but I have not tested it personally yet. No unusual noise, smoke, or shudder as far as I can recall, however the car died just under two weeks ago, and my memory isn't great. Was also having issues with the battery retaining power the day before it died, however both autozone and big O tires said the battery tested good. I'm assuming there is power at the coil based on what my mechanic said about having spark.
