Gauge Cluster is Blinking at me!!!
About one out of every four times that I go from light throttle to heavy throttle I get a loss of electrical power. The engine dies for half of a second and the gauges go out and then the cluster blinks at me and all the idiot lights come on. Then a second later its all fine again.
There's obviously something loose somewhere, I think. I checked the battery terminals and it was fine. I'm going to check the ground on the engine block in the morning when it gets light out. What else can I check out?? Does anybody have any ideas what could cause this?? I really hate these intermitant problems.

If it was just the gauge cluster then that might help, but its causing the engine to die and all the idiot lights to go on. There's something system wide to cause this and I'm not sure where to start. It seems to blink at me with the same timing as the blinkers, I'm not sure if they are related or not.
