See I was going by year but was starting to figure something was off here, OK I am out I don't have a dizzy so I am not much help good luck

 

Hi Jafir, so I am back to square one, my landy does not have a crank sensor, what else can cause the cut out, something gets hot and cut the power or the fuel and when that something cools down the landy starts again.

 

The pick-up coil amplifier or ignition coil are what I suspect is overheating. The amplifier is outside where you can see it and is screwed to the body of the distributor, bigger than a book of matches. The ignition coil is mounted to the radiator support, follow the middle distributor cap wire back to it, old ones where filled with oil as insulator. Both commonly just quit but the amplifier gets so hot where it's mounted it will present the type of problem your having. Guys have moved the amplifier to an inner fender location so that it gets cooling away from the hot engine.

 

Hi ihscouts, 7 month ago I replaced the pick up coil amplifier, not that there was any problems with the old one, I struggle with this problem for a couple of years now so I am out of idea's I have change a lot of things over this time, obvious not what cause this problem. What I pick up is that when I disconnect the white and purple wire on the petrol pump and connect a wire from the ignition to the place were the white and purple wire goes the landy doesn't cut out.

 

you have a1998 d1 with a disrtibutor?


is this ael evap system? big rectangle charcoal cannister under hood?

 

so you don't know if its dying from lack or fuel or lack of spark?

 

its 14cux. EPA doesnt apply outside of A. not everything they made after 96 was obd2

if theres no spark then there is probably no fuel. the secondary coil wire triggers the ecm to fire the injector and reset the 2 second timeout for the fuel pump

 

Hi Tom R, I have a 1996 V8I with a distributor, 14cux and is not obd2

 

Hi robertf, it must be a electrical fault, when the landy cuts out there is lots of fuel pressure at the fuel rail.

 

Bad amplifier is a pretty common fault in the distributor engines. And the new aftermarket parts are often bad, right out of the box.
