I took the car on a 20isj mile drive this morning. Drive it easy for the first 10 or so but went wide open in 5th a few times and it ran fine, this was on the highway so 65 to 80ish mph. Got off the highway sat at a light for a bit, went wide open in 1-3 and the rear end broke loose on me on the 1-2 shift. Slow down to 60 or so then got back on it in 5th and t started missing again, stated in it a few seconds and sure enough a service engine soon light came on the dic. So I backed off, and it went away as soon as I did. A few miles later a friend of kind with a Ferrari passed and I sped up to follow him. Right around 3000 rpm the service engine soon light came in. I guess this is a good thing as I have a code to work off now. Ill keep you guys posted. I'd pull the codes now but I don't have the groundin plugs at cars and coffee and I'd prefer not to pull the codes in a parking lot at a show anyway. It can wait till I get home

Had exact same issue. Turned out to be a failing secondary solenoid - intermittent. Good luck Kevin. Hope it's something ez. Also check and clean map line and position so oil doesn't collect in line.

I was thinking either running out of vacuum, though Marc checked that at Carlisle or running out of fuel

pulled the codes, code 16 dis system fault line circut. so it's either the dis, the wire from the dis to the ecm or the ecm....which means I need to replace lots of expensive parts and hope for the best

either way I still need to remember how to pull the plenum and go after this. I haven't personally done it in probably 10 years. I'm a little rusty
