i have a 92 240sx se and it will randomly die while idleing or driving and wont start back until like an hour. ive already done the following:
Change fuel filter
New Distrubutor
New Rotor
New Sparkplug wires (NGK)
New Sparkplugs (NGK)
cleaned MAF,
regrounded MAF to somewhere else besides stock location
Cleaned throttle body
Checked Grounds and cleaned
Checked Vaccum Lines
checked Fuses
Recently used injector cleaner about 2 months ago
changed the wire harness
changed the fuel pump relay
changed the coolant temp sensor
and it still dies on me ...has anyone had this happen to them or have any other ideas on what could be wrong ? oh yah also the ecu reads 55 so its fine
thanks daniel

youve probably got a vac. leak, you may want to look at your vac. hoses for cracks... i had a problem where my car would randomly die at stop lights etc. i looked around and found a cracked vac. hose before my throttle body. i taped it up with electrical tape and haven't had my ka die since.. :)
