Hi Drew:

The fuse "next to the power steering pump" and the fuse "in the thin red wire from the battery" are one and the same. There is a 25 Amp spade fuse in the red wire line which powers the fuel injection system. Check to be sure that the contacts are clean, the holder and connectors in good shape etc.

I would pick-up a spare fuel pump relay. These are not that expensive, you can rule it out as the cause of the problem and you should have one on hand in the glove compartment for a spare anyway. The relay could cause this problem but I would expect it would cause problems at different RPM's not always around 2000 or 3000.

I don't understand why the tack does not show a change in RPM. It should show a change whether the stalling is caused by fuel starvation or the ignition cutting out.

Could the overdrive be cutting in and out? Just a thought.

Hope this helps.

Jerry Judg
