1995 Eagle Vision with approximately 150, 00 miles. It runs great but sometimes without any warning it just stalls while I'm driving. I can be sailing down the road and then out of nowhere it quits. Once in a while it wont start but then all of a sudden it will start. When the stall happens while driving, if I let it sit a few minutes it starts right up again. This car runs great otherwise. I put in a new fuel filter but two days later the same thing happened. There is no rhyme or reason to it. It runs really smooth so I don't feel its the engine but who knows.

When it stalls is when you want to do testing. My first suspicion is a loss of spark, So use a spark tester to confirm this. IF so I would next want to get to the coil and check for any corrosion on any connections, but primarily at the bottom part of the coil that is circled.

Checking for fuel pressure is also recommened to know that it is only a loss of one, but not both.
