Hi all.
My silver shark came out of paint a few weeks ago. Running well every time out (about 300 miles or so this season). Drove fine all day today. After a two hour pit stop, I was driving home and in mid acceleration, the car just died. All the idiot lights came on. I mean every single thing that can light up in the dash and center console. So the car will start, chug badly at idle for a few seconds then stall. With the key in the OFF position, the cooling fans stay running. My recollection is that this may be indicative of a dead LH. Suggestions?
Thanks,
Brian

Dave an I discussed it and we concluded most likely dead LH. Need to swap out your special go-fast chip when we swap brains.
Less likely, but possible is a bad relay.
