Default Re: Car died 2 blocks from home.

Just an update for anyone who might be interested; I've taken out the car again, yesterday, and drove it around town, making several 90 degree turns, and even a 180 degree turn, and there haven't been any problems. The car starts right up, every time. I am not really convinced that the original problem was the neutral safety switch, but, the tightening of the loose bolts is the only thing that has been done, so, maybe it was the cause. How that could affect a car while it was driving fine, in the middle of a turn, I don't understand. I still suspect an electrical component, like the ballast resister, or coil, but, they checked out okay. So, I'll continue to keep my phone w/me on any drive, and keep a sharp eye out for any possible sputter, hesitation, or out of the ordinary noise. Thanks to all for the comments.
