| Description of the problem | Traveling at 65 mph on state highway in wyoming about an hour out of casper when the engine shut down and would not restart. Temperature was in the 80s and sky was partly overcast. There was no cell phone coverage, but a highway patrol officer stopped and assisted. After about an hour the engine did restart and we were able to travel on without further incident. This is the second time in a month that the engine has shut down without any ascertainable reason. This time the traffic was light and we were able to coast off the traveled portion of the highway. The first time was on interstate 25 in utah, the traffic was very heavy and we were lucky that there was not an accident. The prior time the car would not restart until the next day and was towed. |
