1985 Porsche 944 Engine cuts off for split mili seconds.

My Porsche 944's engine cuts off for split mili seconds when going over bumps. I also feel that the rear suspension which is brand new is and has always been very erractic and noisy over bumps, and the engine cuts off and then resumes normally, a situation that is worsening. Car handles with no issues on normal roads but has this cut off issue which now has started to occur on minor bumps even on motorways. What is the engine cut off & erractic rear suspension due to?

    Check the mounting of the fuel pump and connections in the rear. Mine got loose and jiggled the wiring causing this kind of problem.

HI

I'd definitely check the fuel pump, had a similiar fault with mine, all seemed ok until upon closer inspection there was a hairline facture around the inlet pipe on the pump which was drawing in air and losing the pressure in the fuel system

The serpentine belt and power stering belt won't stay oon they come off as soon a you start the car, 1985 Porsche 944

while the belt is off, engine off, check for a frozen pulley-except for the crankshaft, one is probably locked up or makies a lot of noise/wobbles when turned by hand.. Also, look at the pulleys and see if they 'line up' by looking at them from the side.

1985 Porsche 944 vibration in engine

It is a common problem for the seals in the oil cooler to leak and allow water into the oil. I'd check this first, there should be a procedure online somewhere. Try googling "clarks garage"
