car suddenly dies when driving???
Ok, Got done with heads and cam install, run fine for a few day's.... Now occasionally when you are going down the road, the car will just die. It feels like the fuel just shuts off. The car will feel like it dies and you push in the clutch and it is still barely running around 300rpms then it dies. Once you let it die, sometimes it will turn over with nothing then all of a sudden it will crank like normal. I believe it is the fuel pump just shutting off. Has anyone had this happen or am i the only one. Maybe its a wire losing connection or something of that nature. Not sure where to start. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

cam sensor or crank sensor. check the wiring on both. check all grounds, including the one above the starter on the engine block. an intermitant loose ground can cause random shutoff.
EDIT- when i had this problem, it was the ground above the starter.
