intermittently car starts and shuts right off

JEFF WATSON said:
Im not sure about cold start problems,but one thing to consider for shut off while hot/running, that not many people are not aware of is the oil pressure switch.
It will intermittently cause shut off. For a quick test You can remove and take a sniff of it ,it will have the familiar electrical burn smell if its shorting out.

That's weird, I just changed the low psi switch. But unfortunately it's still cutting off.

I checked the fuel regulator and it works great..

Im a lil loss on what else theres to check other than that im stillng thinking it may be the ignition switch
 


He's talking about the oil pressure switch/sensor by the oil filter. Quick way to test it.. unplug it. Doesn't do a damn thing for us anyhow.

Yeah the low pressure oil switch, I just changed them on both regals bout 5months ago.

Funny bc everything I can think of that can cause a stall checks out fine
 
Time for another compression test and/or oil pressure test.....gotta be one of these....though 140k is just breaking it in(always had good maintenance too). Weird...
