A bad ECT, TPS or MAF could also cause the same symptoms and it may not throw a CEL because the car wouldn't be running long enough to. Plugging it in to a diagnostic computer (NOT a code reader) should point out a dead or dying sensor in the short time the car will run.

Looks like he didn't get the memo!  
Judging by the times, looks like the "dead post" post went up as I was typing mine  . Oh well, tried to help.

Too bad Chris. It was a cool looking car, neat to see it at Carlisle. Someone there was scanning it for codes, and didn't find any. You should get the SVT and try to keep working on this one.

....i drove out to the side of the road after work to check on her...started checking connections...when i looked down and noticed the crank shaft position sensor's wiring harness had decided to tango with the serpentine belt..and it lost  ....so i spliced the wires.solered them,soltered them and taped them up...fired it up and drove it home with no problems....other than the battery light being on  ..i hope the altenator didnt take a dump after only 7 months...as long as it gets me till i start the engine swap it make me no bother
