Ask this question in the technical section you. Lots of technical backroomers read the technical section. You will probably get a reply.

I had this problem with my 87 escort, I was going down the road when all of a sudden I lost all power and then it just died on me.

It took me hours to find the problem.

Check to make sure there is a spark coming through the spark plugs, if there is no spark, you will most probably find it is the amplifier that sits on the distributer.

This goes about every 25.000 miles, they cost around £25 quid from your local shop. it is not very difficult to change.
