We were driving the renesis FB up bogus basin road in idaho (so climbing elevation) but not too hard. The car just died. Wouldnt start back over. temp on gauge was good, but we had to let it cool down to start again. even the fuel tank was hot to the touch. could it have vapor locked? is there a common symptom with this in normal Rx8s? the ecu and electronics are the same. Fuel system is obviously slightly different. __________________ For current updates and event coverage check out Follow on Twitter! @WhizbangRally Whizbang Rally's Webpage \| Facebook
