ok, for the past 2 weeks iv been driving on the high way alot, and everyday, while im cruising in 5th gear the car like shuts off, feels and sounds like i just let off the gas.. i push the gas, nothing, no go and no rev, but when i push the clutch in and out its all good and i can keep driving

its like when ur going down the street and u turn ur car off going in what ever gear, and u put it to the "on" position and push the clutch and it starts back up... seems to be just like that

anyone ever heard of this? please help me

EDIT: i thought maybe it was the tranny cuz i just swapped it, and maybe it was slipping out of gear... but its not, it stays in gear and when i push the gas it doesnt even rev

 

bump...anyone know

 

SO it is still runnign when this happens or does it die?

In otherwords it's like pushing the gas pedal does nothing

 

the car starts to decelerate and i push the gas and it does nothing, no go, no rev

 

if you have a friend with an eg, switch main relays and see if that's it. that's the only thing i can think of at this time, keep us posted!

 

do yhe guages go dead as well?

My hatch did this lsat year when I was driving from VA to FL! It happened like 3 times in that one trip on I-85 and then it never did it again! However 2 monthes later I shot a rod through the block!
