OK
86 5-speed
I'm driving along everything is fine, and it stalls.
Won't start.
after 10 minutes or so it starts.
Several miles later, same thing.
Repeat.
Repeat.
I searched, so many things came up.
MAF is at 390 ohms.
Vacuum checks ok.
O2 sensor maybe?
New CPS.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Been working on it all night. (stumped)
Going to bed now.
Hopefully you guys will have this figured out
for me by morning.
Thanks, God Bless

RELAY RELAY RELAY thanks JB
Also check the battery connections and the fuel pump fuse on the backside of the CE panel where the wires connect ,
make sure that there is power going to each of the wires on each leg of the fuse

Fuel pump over heating? Pull the fuel pump relay and jumper it and see if it repeats.

Thanks guys
I was thinking relay.
Hadn't thought about the fuse panel.
I was in there the other day, may have
knocked something loose.
Will check after work.
Overheating fuel pump?
Hadn't thought of this.
When I jumper the relay, how long should
I leave it on?
What should I check for?
Should I check pump temp.?

I had something somewhat similar in my 9-5, though it wouldn't stall; it would refuse to restart when hot (such as, say, after dropping off a child at school). Wait 10 - 15 minutes and off you go. That was the CPS. But you say new CPS.
When running, is the fuel pump "whining" or buzzing? They make some tell-tale "I'm dying" sounds long before they actually give it up.
Also, check to make sure your battery connections are tight & clean.

No noticeable noises.
It died on an exit ramp, pretty noisy.
This is the 4th time it has done this.
Last night I had to have it towed home.
Started right up as soon as it was
off the truck.

Checked relays and fuses.Replaced fuel pump relay with a new one.
No luck.
It started and ran then died about a mile out.
Couldn't hear the fuel pump.
Pulled the relay, jumped the pump and it ran.
Started.
I shut it off and replaced the relay, it started, got me home.
That's where I sit now.
Idle is really high also.(may have nothing to do with it)
Engine was warm.
Possible ground problem?
Also, when I push the clutch in, the RPM's drop way low,
and the engine almost dies.
Multiple issues?
