It shuts down when I hit a bump or accelerate too fast. It will only restart if i pull the key out of ignition and put it back in. It starts up no problem and will idle fine. If it shuts down and I DO NOT pull out the key. It will crank as if i have no fuel. Again after I pull key and put it back in starts up on the first attempt. Any ideas? Thanks

check your grounds the bump is giving it away it may be battery loose/battery to body, to engine etc. also check dash and behind kick panels.
