Subject:      engine cut out at prolonged steady speed
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

Whenever I take a road trip and keep my speed steady for an extended period of time the engine will begin to cut out. Letting up on the accelerator will temporarily allow the engine to become responsive again. It is not until I pull off the roadway and turn off the engine for a period of time that the condition is again temporarily stopped.

Of course once I get back home and drive around town the problem does not exist and consequently becomes a low priority.

In order to stop this annoying cycle can anyone give me a clue as to what is causing this to happen so as I can get it fixed before my next road trip? Thanks, Pat.
