[MR2] Intermittent loss of power

[DAVIES, BARRY S (BARRY)]

But if the ignition were to lose connection completely, the motor would
die, which it doesn't. The only manifestation that something is wrong is
a slightly lower and lumpier idle at about 800 rpm, max rpm of about
1600 feathering the throttle (too much and it dies) and then not enough
power to feed any load into the clutch without it dying away again. 
thanks
Barry

	This may be reaching, but an intermittent complete loss of power
can happen with a loose connection to the ignition switch. On my '92T,
occasionally the thing wil quit dead while running; reaching under the
bottom of the dash, grabbing that main wire loom and tugging, it starts
running again- for days, weeks or months.  I also have similar
intermittent no-op from the 3-stage boost-override controls from HKS.
Where's that vaunted 'superior Japanese electronics' we hear about?
