95 Sport stalling at will, Ignition?
My 95 with 135000 miles starts fine, idles fine, drives fine, then just shuts down. Then problem started at low RPM's, now it stalls every 1/2 mile on the highway and steets no matter the RPM. I replaced the Crank Position Sensor 2 months ago when it wouldn't start and it was running fine until last week. Today on my way to a turkey dinner it stalled 4x on a 5 mile trip. I did notice that after it stalled all guages drop to zero, speedometer included. I pull over hazards on and it wont start for a minute. It turns over, then on the 3rd or so try the key buzzer buzzes and it starts fine. I'm wondering if the ignition isn't recognizing the key or something. I cleaned the Throttle Body as best as I could and bought some injector cleaner hoping it was a fuel issue. I checked the relays to see if any of them were hot, nope. I pulled off the steering column cover to see if any wires were loose, nope. There's plenty of fuel pressure at the rail. The filters are all recently replaced. I'm stumped. Any Ideas???? Side note...why does my steering sqeak when I turn kinda tight. kinda sounds like a squeaky mattress when your humping

Im not sure if you have this but there might be a white resistor block on your driver fender< has 2 wires coming from it. That could be failing and if it gets wet it can cause your issues.

so I ran codes with the key and replaced the ASD relay.(auto shut down) seemed to work for 2 days then the problem came back. 1st it came back over a bump, then in reverse for the 1st time,now it seems to happen every 500 yards or so. Rrrrrrrr
