    Could be your crank or cam sensors. They will cause that type of
    problem but you need to check the codes. The sensors are cheap and are
    easy to install if that is the problem.

    No crank sensor on that vehicle, when you say the turbo turns on and off
    what does that mean?? is the engine cutting on and off? is the engine going
    into overboost? and shutting down?? does the check engine lite turn on when
    this happens?? you gotta give more info then that if you want someone to try
    to help

    I will be driving along and the engine will cut out a few seconds and
    the tech needle swings back and forth. Then itruns fine until the next
    time. It's like the I turned off the motor.

    Alot of times you can tap on the base of the distributor housing, (the metal
    part) with a wrench or small hammer while it is runnning, if it skips or
    shuts off then replace the dist pick up plate

    I checked the rotor and it looks good. I also tapped the distributor
    housing to no avail. When I am driving on the highway and using the
    cruise when it cuts out the cruise is turned off. The pickup plate was
    replace last October, the cap was replaced at the same time
    I would welcome any more ideas you may have.

    I have also seen the rotor button get a hole burned thru it and the
    secondary spark grounding out on the distributor shaft causing such a
    problem, this is very hard to see
