So I got a problem with my Turbo.

I recently aquired one of the cleanest cars I have ever owned. It is a 96 Turbo with 59k Miles on it. It is really nice with no cosmetic flaws I can see. A true 10/10.

It has full history and etc but as I was driving it today it did a few things which I think is common so I thought I would ask.

It was during regular stop and go and the car stalled. A violent stall to be honest. It seems like there is a glitch somewere, the problem feels like a wiring problem not a engine problem. it just seems like there is a bad connection somewhere. After it stalls, I start it a few minutes later and it is fine. I have heard these things have had electrical issues but I don't know what they were. Some help?

I am technically inclined so tehc answers are OK! Thanks in Advance

Hello,

It didnt happen for days then all of a sudden today everytime I start the car and drive for 5 minutes it goes nuts. In fact I took a hard turn today with the car and it stalled again. I thought it might just be a battery connection or something stupid but no.

There is a real issue, any help is apprec.

Raymond

Bad fuel pump/fuel filter? Are the plugs white? Just thinking out loud ...

Could be a DME relay. You oughta have a spare anyway so buy one (<$50), install it and see if the problem still occurs
