I find myself having to post here again unfortunately, symptoms include very intermittent power loss, of which haven't been able to find a pattern. (It will go a whole day of driving without doing it, ill park in for an hour and get back in and it wont make it 2 blocks before doing it. though sometimes, it will do it when it first starts up) It sounds like someone is cutting off the fuel, if I open it to WOT it will work its way past it, but you can still feel it being held back. If you pop it in to neutral at any of these power loss points, it will idle very weak, and stumble and chug until it either straightens out, or dies. With my head in the engine compartment, while its having a fit and stumbling; struggling to stay running, I can hear a very distinct electrical buzzing either coming from the distributor or an injector. (This buzzing immediately goes away once the idle straightens back out.) I get a code 41 lean, so Im suspecting to fuel system, I changed the Fuel pressure regulator, and both filters. But That electrical buzzing is very suspicious to me, and I think its related to the problem. Looking for advice on what to do next, and if anyone has had success getting these problems sorted out.
