Engine problem
1993 Ford Probe 4 cyl Wheel Drive Type unknown Automatic 235000 miles

I have taken it to a number of mechanics, and they cant figure it out, I'll be driving, idling, slowing down its just random and the fuel will be cut to my engine, i loose power steering, but electrically everything is ok, the fuel cut off light comes on as well. I have to pull over and turn the vehicle off and then start it up again sometimes it fires right up right away sometimes it takes five minutes to get it going, and it only happens like once every other day, and it happens at random moments. I have had the fuel pump replaced, as well as the distributer, but it still does it, any advice would help, thanks.

Well the inertia fuel cut off switch is in the trunk, behind the left rear trim panel, could be defective, or a wire getting chaffed...
