Engine stall on hghway! 700

The big 4 are:

1) RPM sensor-- on the bellhousing (~$30, a bit fiddly, but DIYable)
2) fuel system relay-- replace or resolder-- easy.
3) radio suppression relay-- ditto.
4) power stage (ignition amplifier)-- located on the driver's side inner fender. After an unpleasant experience in rush hour Toronto traffic, I keep one in the glovebox along with a spare 2&3-- 1 isn't something you want to have to do on the side of the road...

By 120K miles all of these things are maintenance items as far as I am concerned. You can replace them all for less than the price of a short tow.

Good luck!
