OVP ?

Hi, everyone

I drove the car a good bit today and had the engine quit a couple of times. It seems to be fairly consistent now. All you have to do is warm it up, shut it down, and wait a couple of minutes, then crank it up, put it in gear and try to drive off.

I did some searching for info on the OVP relay, and found one post that offered a way to check the OVP.

My understanding is that it can be checked by turning the ignition on, not starting the engine, and checking the voltage on diagnostic pin #3.
And the voltage should be between 2.5 - 5.0 volts.

So I checked it and it read 3.63 volts.

But, this evening I thought why not check the voltage just after the engine quits without turning the key to reset everything.

So I did and I got a reading of 7.5 volts, which is over the range according to this other thread.

Does anyone know if this is a way to check it?

Thanks,
Bill
