RE: 940 engine shut down
 

It could be anything from sensors to fuel pump intermittent problem, or fuel vapour causing air lock in the fuel line (not very likely for modern cars, though).

Without testing the car myself, I cannot give you an accurate solution. See if Moderator Tech could help you. PM Tech or post a thread with the title like Tech I Seriously Need Your Help!!!
