IN Car died now it wont start

i am only getting a 120 rpm reading on the data page. and the car died a few times while driving last week but refired just just a few seconds later. I am just needing a few ideas because its cold an raining an my garage is full. This is a e6a running 3 6al's.

Is this a Haltech? Could be similar problem I had with my microtech. The fuel pump circuit fried. Rather than send the ECU back to Austrailia, I ran a new, toggle switched line directly from the battery to the fuel pump. Cured.........

hey man I have the same setup you have but with a e6s. I dont know if this helps but I dont see spark until it goes pass 250-300 RPM's make sure your battery and starter are good. 180 RPMs are to low. If the car is dying on the road also take a look at your alternator. they tend to go when youre running 3 msds!!! trust me I know!!! good luck. pm me if you need any other help

Alternator must be dead. so everytime you connect it it shorts the system out.
