Here's how this turned out: I replaced the vehicle speed sensor, and that
has apparently corrected the problem My theory regarding the trouble code
of
43 (fuel delivery problem) is: As the VSS sent an improper signal to the
computer, the computer began to cut down on the fuel supply. Then as I
pressed the gas pedal for more fuel, it might have gone into some failure
mode that gave up trying to tune the fuel delivery. I don't know much
about
the computer/fuel interactions, though.
Thanks to all those who responded.
