Loss of Power for a Second and the Car Died

Hi All,

I've looked up my symptoms and have found threads with people experiencing similar things, with suggestions but no definitive solutions. I won't have time to look at the car further until this weekend, but I wanted to see if anyone has had a similar problem and found a solution for it in the meantime.

A month ago, I was driving on the highway in 5th gear, power cut out for a second or two, then resumed like normal without the car stalling. Everything was fine until yesterday, I was driving on the highway again and experienced this same thing 3 to 4 times. I am on the accelerator, then it feels like power just cuts out completely for a second or two, then power comes back. At one point when in stop in go traffic (in 1st gear), the car completely died. It started right away without any problem and worked as it should for the rest of my drive.

I'm at ~84k miles. The previous owner said he changed the spark plugs at ~55k and a new battery at ~58k.

Anyone else deal with this and find a solution?

any codes??? These cars can suffer from faulty evap purge valves which need to be replaced from time to time that can cause symptoms similar to what you're experiencing...

P008B - Low Pressure Fuel System Pressure - Too High
P1450: Unable To Bleed Up Fuel Tank Vacuum
P219A: Air/Fuel Ratio (AFR) (Bank 1)

Just pulled the codes, that is what it is showing. It looks like there are threads for some of these codes, I will do some research to see what needs to be done.
