Like title states, I was driving my 95 gt on the highway it randomly drops from 3k rpms down to 1500rpms or around 2k rpms and back up and back down like random loss of power and surge idle up and down randomly did it 2 or 3 times with like random loss of powere rpms down up , I went to slow down to stop idle fine, and started moving as im driving the car dies no power. SO I pull over and I go to restart my car nothing, it just keeps trying to turn over but doesnt. doesnt click so not battery related doesnt sound like starter. was thinking spark or fuel related. Its been really cold here in CT below zero weather, the cars been sitting for over 1 month just randomly starting it and recharger trickle charger on my battery. it started up fine today ran fine. about after an Hour of driving i was doing about 70 in 5th gear it was near 3k rpms and out of nowhere it just like dropped rpms like as if i down shifted or upshifted to another gear. went back up did it 2 or 3 times. So i get off the highway soon as i slow down it just dies no power. So go to restarted it nothing. I let it sit it started up fine. drove about 1 mile did the same thing died again. and since 2nd time hasnt restarted. no battery clicking no sign of battery or starter related, so looks like its a running issue, being did it driving then died wont start but did 1 time after, So I belive spark or fuel related?. I primed the ignition key over several times I hear the fuel pump kick over but wont fully turn over it wants to but doesnt. So maybe spark ? not fuel. maybe bad gas or bad coil / distributor? any pointers. -THANKS-
