[s-cars] Just cut out and died.

Bill:

When this { sudden death} happened to me in summer of 2007, I parked at a CT
package store to get some beverage.
Shut off car.. returned with beer, tried to start car , "He's Dead Jim !!"

just like that. off like a switch.
Do the fuel pump test, that's what I found.. no sounds back there ina tank
area.

Hope it's not the transmission Bill !

This has ME thinking now about my OWN avant-no-start problem....
wonder if the CPS could be an issue for me too? Prolly not as I have
isolated #5cyl as the culprit, but....
