My 96 Maxi is giving me some trouble. At random times when I shift into neutral it will shut off, after it shuts off it takes about 10s to start it, once it starts it stays on for about 30s and then sputters out. I have to restart it on average 3 times before it runs like normal. Also sometimes after this has happened and I finally get it to run like normal when I shift it is super jerky almost like I'm slamming on the breaks quickly when I shift (it feels like the car is starved for gas). I have done a lot of work on this car recently, including replacing the clutch plates, spark plugs, fuel filter, clutch flex lines. The battery is semi-new I had some problems with it after I finished the clutch plates, It was dying (in a different way) it would just not work like the battery was bad I fixed that though. I have looked at, what feels like, every single post on every single forum to try and figure this out but I haven't found anything close to a definitive answer. Could it be the Fuel Injectors, CamShaft Sensors, Fuel Pump, Fuel Pressure Regulator, The Battery, could it be the Camshaft sensors and the batter combined, could I have messed something up when changing the clutch plates? (Air filter etc). I did have this problem before I changed the clutch plates but it was very few and far between when it would happen. The car has 240k miles on it. This car is my baby, any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm not a mechanic by any means but this is what I have deduced from all of the other threads.

Is the CEL on for any reason? Have you ever cleaned the MAF/TB/IACV?

Sorry for such a late reply. The CEL isn't on, and no I have not checked/cleaned any of those. I'll try that though. I don't think i'll have time until the weekend but thanks for your reply! Is there any way to tell if the MAF/IAC/TB have failed completely? Or is it just a guessing game.

I took the car to autozone to get the error codes it came up with 5. P0125 "Insufficent Coolant Temp for Closed Loop Fuel Control" P0325 "Knock Sensor 1 Circuit" P1320 "Ignition Signal Primary" P1445 Unknown P0115 "Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor Performance" I don't really know what they mean but does anyone think that one of these could be part of my problem? Specifically P0125?

Looks like you need a ECTS, KS and probably a CPS or some coilpacks.
