The car starts again after stopping fully and selecting Park and staring again. Happens while travelling as well as while stationary in Park. Keeps running fine, with the engine rpm less than 3000 and travelling 100Kmph or less. Would it be distributor problem? The car is well looked after, recently throttle body cleaned by automechanic(found carbon)

Hi:
I'm not sure, but it seems like this is a reply to a techs reply. However, I can't see any prior postings. So bear with me.

If the vehicle is dieing as described, has the fuel pressure been checked?

I am not sure whether my mechanic has checked it. Hopefully it is fine, as the car has good power and runs well with load and uphill.
