It could be the engine wiring harness shorting out due to crumbling insulation.
If it has not already been replaced, I would almost be certain that it is due... Another possibility is a loose/oxidated electrical connection somewhere... open up the hood and start poking around, just stay away from belts, fan & exhaust manifold...

Good Luck,
JJ

p.s. you can buy a good used wiring harness from dan Barton, link can be found in FAQ and another post on the 200 section
