    It is an 89 model 740 GL sedan. If you punch the accelerator in order
    to pass a car, hitting about 4000 RPM, the engine shuts down. You have
    to coast to a stop and put in park before it will start again. What
    would cause this? Fuel pump ?

    Can you shift to neutral and start it up right away?
