intermittent stall, restarts, now worse 200 1991

posted by  someone claiming to be townes on  Tue Nov 30 16:33 CST 2010 [RELATED]

I've had an issue with our 91 240 for a while now with an intermittent
stall from time to time which usually restarts. The fuses are occasionally
loose in the holders and that has sometimes fixed the issue in the past but
now I'm wondering if that wasn't a bit of a red herring. I've had a bum fp
relay in the past but those symptoms were a bit different. This is loss of power and fuel and then it stalls. Tonight it stalled and wouldn't restart and had to be towed. After sitting for an hour at home it started right up again. I let it idle for 15 minutes and then it stalled again and wouldn't restart. I disconnected the AMM and is started. I reconnected no start. I then disconnected again and no start. It's getting to the point of being dangerous since we drive on the LA freeways. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
No smell of gas when FPR is disconnected either.

Thanks, Kirk
