[s-cars] 92 S4 no-start, kinda, well for about 40 minutes

[Cody Forbes]

I thought the memory in these cars was still volitile and after you shut the 
key off the codes are gone, right?

Like Chris said could be the fuel pump. I first thought cam position sensor, 
but I don't think it would fire at all when the CPS goes.
