Stumped: 850 runs for 20 minutes. 850 1995

posted by  someone claiming to be Chris Herbst on  Mon Dec 17 14:20 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Here's a stumper--I'm looking for suggestions.

I have a '95 850 that will run like a dream for twenty minutes, then shut itself off. The car has around 90k miles.

It will NOT restart, until I've waited maybe 45 minutes, and then it starts up like clockwork all over again, and runs beautifully.

This problem just popped up recently, and has recreated itself a few times now. This is only relaying a message from a couple of other guys who have looked at it--not positive if there is spark, fuel, both, or what. I haven't even gotten around to looking at it myself, between 100 other projects I've got going.

Anyone heard of this kind of thing before? I'm temporarily stumped by this one.
