Corrosion on the terminals of my 944 used to cause complete electrical failure. I'd be cruising down the highway at night and the entire car, headlights, taillights, dash light, engine would all go black. I'd have to coast to a stop then it would fire right back up and work fine for a few more days.

New battery has been called in and is awaiting me for after work today at the local store.

we'll see what this does, then move on to the fuel pressure testing.

Thanks!
