007 is the only AMM for that car. Any (non turbo) '85-'88 240. Lots of 740s too, though I couldn't tell you specific years/models.

Though like Tony said a bad AMM will not let a car run smoothly. Also, it's more like it dies after one second, not ten.

Sounds more like the car is loosing either spark or fuel. Could be something as simple as a bad distributor rotor. That's the only thing I can remember seeing fail with the exact symptoms you've described.

Best of luck!
