Disconnect the battery term, See if that might work.

It's also called the "pick up coil", it is under the distributor cap and rotor.

Ya i finally figured that out. I'm going to try the crankshaft sensor first i hear those are a more common problem that present the same symptoms. Thanks for the ideas though.
