Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hey all,

just put in an engine with new gaskets and what not ..
did some exhaust work .. and testing it out .. . when
i start it . it idles fine for abit then starts reving
up and down ? .. idle stablizer ? or O2 sensor ..
ithink its burning rich as well the smell .. but
driving round town it drives fine, no over heating
even though i think the fan isnt working and its 29 C,
humidity at 52 % :) . but.. anyway.. but I took it out
on the hwy and like.. 2 minutes into driving at about
110 kms or thats what it says on the speedometer, no
tach so i donno what rpm .. but then it just stalls
... no loss of power eletrically just the engine died
... pull off the road . let it sit for like 1 min,
tryed starting it and it started .. started pulling
away .. got out to hwy speed again .. then it stalls
again .. ..  .. let it sit then tryed starting it and
it worked .. hmmm... so I got it off the hwy and been
drivning it all round town .. with no problems ...
whats goin on ? ..

fuel filter is new, could it be dirty injectors, O2
sensor ? ...  ?  .. any ideas would be helpfull ..

thanks
