My 94 cobra stalls while driving down the highway. I mean the engine completly dies and then it comes back on. ANd i am on my way. so of course i take it to the ford service center, they can't find anything. b/c it won't do it in the shop on the computer.

it idles fine and starts fine.

Is your ignition system stock?
I had a similar problem with my 94
but had a Crane Hi-6 and H.O. coil.
I had it mounted in the fender well,
it got damp at the connectors, and
would buck and stall. If your system is stock
check your coil wire, distributor for cracks.
There was also a TF thin film type ignition
issue that caused the electrical system
to deteriorate after time and repeated
heat cycles. Need to know some mor
info, are you running stock, mods etc.
Starter wire could be a good place to look also.
Could the dealer pull an error code from your fault?

When was the last time you changed your fule filter???
Since is dying when you have been driving at seepd for a while, it could be that your loosing fuel pressure??? It the eazyest thing to try first.

just want to say thanks for the advice, i will look into both of them in the morning. to be honest the wires look pretty good and pretty new. i have had the car for a year, and they were already on it, so maybe there is something wrong with them.

I have heard the EGR Valve and fuel pump could do this as well.

But I can't find the EGR Valve and really can't find the fuel filter. the filter must be really close to the tank, b/c i can see it.

the car is bone stock, right down to the timing. the shop could not pull a code b/c it would not act up while hooked up to it.

But the mechanic did drive the car and it acted up will driving. so at least they didn't think i was crazy. But they have no idea.

it happens so fast, its like flicking the light switch in you bedroom on and off really fast.

if any one else has any idea's please speak up, i am almost desperate for an answer

thanks
