I'm kind of in a pinch. My 245 broke down on the interstate 30 miles from home. Before it went kaput, it was hesitating when I would step on the gas (ie trying to maintain highway speeds). Then I heard a pop/bang and it stalled on the highway. It was not doing this the day before.


There's good fuel pressure. The engine idles, but stepping on the gas stalls it. We also tried bypassing the Mass Air Flow Sensor. Same thing. Any ideas?

I've got it at a truck stop now and I'm just trying to get it back home before it gets impounded.

Any help advice would be great.

PS The kicker is somebody stole my catalytic converter while it was on the side of the road.
