Going North through the Perry, Ga area on I-75 in either a '73 or '80 Plymouth or Dodge (I forget which) the engine would quit for four or five seconds and then start again. I first thought it was a bad solid state module that fired the plugs on magnetic impulses from the distributor, but replacing it made no difference. Asked a local mechanic about it and he said it was caused by something emanating from Warner-Robins. Another trip I drove an east-west road south of Warner-Robins and had the same thing happen. Never been able to figure out what kind of radiation "beam" at the distances involved would cause a high voltage coil/solid state switching circuit to shut down; especially one that was pretty well shielded by the steel car body sheet metal.
Comment?
