Re: Another mystery elec problem with my SX/4

A: Sounds like some sort of breaker is kicking on and off. Does your have an 
ammeter? That tends to mess up on AMCs and cause that sort of trouble. It 
could also be a corroded fusible link or bad battery connector.

Just when things seemed to be going well with my SX/4
a weird/upsetting elec problem has cropped up (has
happened 3 times in past 5 days).  I am driving along
(once coming off the freeway, once at 60mph on the
freeway and tonight idling down the alley to my
driveway), and the car just looses most elec power
(the clock in the guage package and the emerg
blinkers, although they won't blink). This is a 5 spd
and leaving the clutch in has no effect on restarting.
 After a couple of minutes power comes back on and
everything is normal again.  It was quiet in the alley
tonight and as I tried to restart before the power
'magically' returned I heard a single click in the
area of the dash guages (near the aftermarket tach I
installed in place of the broken original).
Suggestions?  Thanks.
