I've had the ve swap in for about 8,000 miles. A few months back it had some hiccups while driving. Under normal driving, the car would not respond all of a sudden. When pressing the throttle it wouldnt respond ( kind of like when the maf isnt reading airflow due to it being loose or fallen off. After a full tune up, the car started to act up again. The first time today , I was driving and it did the same as noted above but the engine continued to stay on. The second time a few minutes later cut out and i downshifted to see if the motor would start itself again and to no avail. During this time the wideband was reading all the way lean. So I pull over, wait 10 seconds , and the car starts fine. Any help would be appreciated. Should I try changing distributors? I'm using one that I bought from Andreas that hooked up to the se-l harness with no modifcation.
Edit: It's almost like the car goes into safety limpmode and fires up after being reset by the key.
