Went to Enlishtown over the weekend and had nothing but problems getting there and driving home. About 50-60 miles into the trip, the engine would start to miss then backfire and then shut off. If I reset the computer, all was well again for another 10 miles or so. This went on the rest of the way to the hotel.
I had tighten up on my torque strap right before we left. I noticed that one rib of the serpentine belt was cut off. So I thought maybe I had torqued the strap to tight and was cocking the alternator and maybe grounding/shorting something out. I let the tension off of it and then drove up and down the highway without any problems. So I went to the track the next day and all seemed well.
About 60 miles into the trip, same thing happens. Miss, backfire, coast to a stop. Reset and I'm on my way. But its getting worse each time now and doesn't last but a mile. Eventually, I call a tow truck and get towed home.
As of last night off the roll back, it wouldn't even idle but 2-300 rpm and only for a couple of seconds before dying.
I'm getting no light or trouble codes. I've swapped the 3 chips I had with me and it does it with all of them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated in figuring this out.
Thanks
