Hi, I have a 1995 GS-T and this morning I had a hard turning it on. I took a good 8 seconds just to get the car running. Then agian this morning I was going around 50 in 4th gear a put the clutch all the way in to downshif and all the lights on the dashboard came on and the car just turned off. I tunred it right back on with no problem then went down a couple more streets and was going around 30 in 3rd gear when the car just shut off agian. Does anyone have any idea what this might be? The weather today was a little bit hotter than usual ~90 and I seem to only have this problem when the A/C is on because I was able to drive home without any difficulty although I did have a hard time starting the car agian. Thanks for any help.:)
 
that happend to my buddies car.. It took us a while to figure it out, and it was his stupid ass battery cable. Make sure the cable is on the battery real tight...

and if its not that, I dont know. sorry..
 
That might be it. Because yesterday I unpluged the battery when I put in some new headlights and I might not have put it back on tight enough. OMG :thumb:
