Pain in the A$$

I have a 92SE< I picked it up rather cheap and has been a fun car so far. The current problem is that I will be driving along and I will completly loose power for a few seconds, sometimes it will come back with a down shift or sometimes I have to turn the key on and off while I am driving. I had the throttle body cleaned and the throttle position sender replaced. My wife is now refusing to drive it and it seems to be happening more frequenlty!

Help

do a little searching in this forum on stalling and such. it's a somewhat common problem, and maybe someone has figured something out. I just haven't read any of those threads myself for fear of my car starting it too!
Good luck- sounds like a scary problem to have!

How much stuff (weight) do you have on your key ring?
