Fuel Pump Relay question

[Ed Kellock]

This sounds similar to what was happening with my urq, except it was a
momentary loss of ignition instead of an actually stall.  Sometimes at
idle, if I wasn't rev'ing the engine, it would stall, but usually the
cutout would be brief enough, it would recover.  Nevertheless, it
would always restart.

I did not "fix" it but it's not doing it anymore.  Throughout all my
trials and tribulations with it, it seemed to be related to the coil
wire or coil connections.  The last thing I did was testing the coil
specs which required removing all the wires connected to it.  After
reattaching them, it doesn't seem to want to cut out.

I'm not  really thinking it's the relay.  The only thing that seemed
to
get the  car to start after messing with it was unplugging the ISV
connector.   Still seems like shaking the fuse / relay tray was making
the car stall  & start when turning over for a long time, but I could
not get it to  stall no matter how hard I tried after unplugging the
ISV's electrical  connection.

Lucky for me, it's gonna be 90° out today, and I have to go  to work.
This should be "fun"...





I think I have ISV spares as well. Might be worth a shot to replace
that
unit?
FWIW- I'm not trying to "sell" parts- I'm trying to help.
