Well, it's been about 9 months since the last (second) time my Prowler had to be towed, so it was time again, I guess. While driving all the sudden the engine sounded like it's running on 4 or 5 cylinders only and had no power left to maintain speed. All this happened while cruising 50mph on a highway nicest weather. I can't restart it, although the starter is able to rev the engine with normal effort, so I guess it's not a mechanical problem. My best guess would be a sensor (crankshaft position sensor, knock sensor...) is broken, or maybe the ECU itself!?!? Happened too late today, I'll have it towed tomorrow. Anybody an idea on what could have happened? Thanks guys, |

Still sounds like a fuel problem - maybe not "no fuel" but a fule pump, fuel line problem. Good luck getting it figured out. |

I second Marty on the fuel pump / fuel line problem. Thats where I would start anyway. Good luck and post your findings. |

Well, I hope y'all are right, cause that'd be an easy fix. The car will be towed this morning and be inspected Monday morning. I'll post an update! Thanks. |

Well, you guys should open an "Online Pharmacy for Prowlers", your diagnose was right: The fuel pump gave up... They found the problem right after lunch today and tell me, hopefully I will have the car back before the weekend. Chromer: |
