94 buick regal shuts down then starts again immediately

Asked by rankingprof May 30, 2012 at 08:25 PM about the 1994 Buick Regal Custom Sedan FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

my 1994 buick regal periodically shuts down while I am driving but immediately starts up again. I have replaced the alternator and fuel filter but it still does it (sometimes when it gets hotter outside). Temperature does not seem to be the specific cause. The mechanic is lost on this. He even drove it for a week and experienced the problem but still cannot figure out how to fix it. Its weird since it just shits down and then starts again no problem. It happens when I am driving or stopped at a light so I do not know what is the cause. I have replaced the  battery, alternator, fuel filter and water pump

Does the 94 model have a multi function turn signal?? I have had problems with 98 engine shutting off right after using the turn signal and then starting up again, very weird.

I had a similar problem with my 1994 Regal custom. It was diagnosed with a bad fuel pump. We pulled, drained and cleaned the gas tank, replaced the fuel pump, sender, and intake strainer. Also cleaned the throttle body. It has worked great since, even on long trips, so far so good.
