Hope I get some insight on where to go from here.
Never had a problem with our Expy until 2 weeks ago was on the highway going up slight incline, increased throttle and no response and engine started to die. Worked the throttle a little and before it completely died it started going again. It has happened 5 more times since with each time the engine completing dying (i.e. losing power steering and brakes). When this happens CEL comes on and I still have battery power. It will restart and run with no problems after it sits for a minute or two. Took it to have the codes pulled......and no codes.
I have checked all the wires in the engine bay. Nothing exposed or frayed. I have cleaned everything on the battery and surrounding components as there was some corrosion. I can hear the fuel pump prime when in the accessory key position, so I think it is something electrical. It also seems to happen only when the AC is on.
I have read about the fuse box problem. I have read about a fuel pump relay problem. I have a new fuel pump relay and fuel filter that I am waiting to put in, but I really think it is something electrical or ignition related.
My question is where to go from here. Your opinions are greatly appreciated.
TIA
