I had a driver call complaining about a 15' Mirage that stalled and wouldn't restart. I couldn't get a straight answer whether it was cranking/turning over so suggested they just hold the throttle to the floor and try starting it. They got it going and all was good for most of the day. Then it stalled pulling up to an intersection and wouldn't restart immediately. Eventually they got it running and pulled onto a side road.
I didn't want it to crap out at another inspection so went to grab it with a trailer. Of course it runs good when I get there. The only trouble codes stored was one for the lf air bag sensor which would have been triggered the first time they had a problem and another u0100 in the power steering module which was triggered the second time it died.
I checked the go to kick panel connector and it looked good and was relocated up high already. Tested the battery, 140cca not sure how it even started. Replaced it and the spark plugs as well as they were a little over due and showing wear at 232k kms.
Put the driver back in the car this morning and so far so good. Will post back if/when car acts up again. I won't be surprised if the starter dies soon, running it with a dead battery will cook them quicker than normal.
