Been troubleshooting car intially stalling out at highway speeds. At 65mph it would completely shut down. I would pull over and wait a few minutes and it would restart. Then it finally stopped running. After changing the fuel filter, Coil, Ingnition start switch I finally switched out the whole Distrubuter. Everything was fine. Shortly after I put 200-250 miles on the new Dist it lost spark again. The Intergrated Control Module was shot. Tested with haynes book and meter. Took the remanufactuered part back to Autozone and bought a completely brand new item. So far so good, 300 plus miles. My question is there a possilbility of the ECM going bad. The ecm is suspouse to control the ICM. Or do you think the Dist from Auto Zone was under par? After two breakdowns in 1 month reliability is definetly a issue.
2 question is how many miles do you think I can get out of the old girl? Compression is strong and barely consumes oil. Maybe the big 300k
Thank you in advance
