I'm thinking about an instrument cluster that will tell me what's happening to my 91 2.1L DoKa as I drive. Here's the problem:

Starts right away. A block later we die. Sometimes starts again, sometimes not. Sometimes idles at stop signs, sometimes not. If I park for 5 minutes, maybe we start again, maybe not.

It's time I solve this problem. So the problem might be electrical, or maybe fuel-trical. Fuel-trical? Fuel-trackle? Well, a fuel problem.

Is there a diagnostic cluster I can put on my dash so I can monitor my engine? Or lacking that, what is the first steps in driving diagnostics?

ed-91 DoKa, mostly parked in my driveway.
