Default Sudden loss of power '1990 model'

This problem is intermittent and can happen at any time. I'll be driving along and then all of the sudden I'll experience a loss of power and the car stalls. I'll wait a few seconds and start it without any problems. I've had all the fuel injectors replaced, but that didn't help.

I would appreciate feedback from anyone that has experienced the same problem,

The causes to that can be several different things. I would need to know if you are losing spark or fuel pressure, or injector pulse. It will be hard to tell without a trail to follow.

This used to happen on my 85 coupe and it tuned out to be a plugged catalytic converter that was causing it.
