87 gn with 35000 miles cuts out when in drive. I can rev motor in park or neutral sounds ok. When in drive it seems to cut out at any time. Can't figure out if is a electrical problem or a fuel problem. Took car to a shop where they tried a coil pack and module car ran the same. Told coil pack was bad, 1 coil reads 85 ohms other 2 read 12 ohms. Plan on changing coil pack but shop said this didn't make a difference. Any help would surely be appreciated. Thanks

I HAD AN 87 T-TYPE THAT BASICALLY DID THE SAME THING. I TRIED EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL BUT TO NO AVAIL PROBLEM STILL THERE. I DECIDED TO CHANGE TO A HI PERFORMANCE CAM (200-200). WHEN I PULLED THE MOTOR APART FOUND TWO CAM LOBES WIPED OUT. REPLACED CAM, LIFTERS AND DOUBLE ROLLER TIMING CHAIN AND PROBLEM WAS GONE.
