In my case when the fuel cutoff light came on and the engine died it was the distributor. hope this helps.

-- jamieazure: I just had my 1994 Probe GT fixed after trying to troubleshoot this problem for the last week. It's pretty cold here in MN, so when I started the car up it was perfectly fine. It would run for about 10miles, then the tach would just drop out like the power was cut off to the car. I'd drift to the side of the road, wait about 10min and it would start back up. Turns out my distributor was failing when it got too hot. Replaced it last night with a new (remanufactured) one ($240.00) and it appears to be working great now.

Why would 1994 ford probe gt stall at a stop and the fuel cutoff light come on?

I have a 1994 Probe GT and that has happened to me before. To fix this problem, there is a fuel cutoff switch on the driver's side of the trunk hidden behind the plastic trunk panels. Make sure the red button is clicked down all the way, and you should be good to go. The car will cut off all fuel to the engine if that switch is tripped.

1994 ford probe gt Fuel cutoff light comes on and car loses power sometimes starts back up on its own and other times you have to turn the car off and it starts right back up?

the fuel cut off light comes on when there is a problem with the fuel cutoff switch (whether its bad or tripped) and/or when there is a problem with the charging system. your situation seems to be that the alternator belt is slipping which would cause lights n such to dim and lose power and the fuel cutoff light to come on. inspect the alternator belt, replace if worn or tighten it

What would cause a 1994 ford escort lx to shut off while driving you have spark and noticed fuel cutoff light comes on while trying to restart?

The fuel pump safety triggers in case of accident. The fuel cutoff light indicates this was triggered. The fuel pump is located in the luggage trunk under a plastic cap and needs to be rearmed by pushing a button. Instructions can be found in the 1994 ford usage manual (that was delivered along with your car).
