Default Re: engine just shoots down riding !! then turns it again! suddeltly !

I searched around and came up with a couple of suggestions.

The fault could be a clogged Catalytic Converter (if you have one in your country). You sound like your from out of the U.S.

It could also be a faulty Camshaft or Crankshaft sensor.

Lastly, it could be the SKIM (Sentry Key Immobilizer Module). If the 'chip' in the key quits sending its signature to the security module, the engine will be cut off. Try using your secondary key for a while to see if it resolves the problem.
