Car dies, and loses tune...

[gsx rated98]

A few while ago, while driving my car, i was sitting at a stop light and the car started to idle surge, then cut out. I was able to get it started back up but just for a few seconds, long enough to get off to the side of the road and get a toe. I took it to a friends house where we reset the ECU, and problem was gone. Ever since then, every few weeks the car will die again, and will either have to be reset by pulling the ECU fuse, or the car will drop the tune from DSMLink all togeather, and revert back to a completely stock ECU.

Has anyone ever run into any issues like this before? I have been told that my TPS is going bad. I havent had a chance to research testing, or the possibitlity of any other possible problems. If anyone has any insite to this it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Jerry
