So I hesitantly let my wife drive my phazer for the first time and needless to say she rolled over after 100 feet. She let it run on the right side till it died. I got it back up and it started right away, but died after running 5 seconds. It did this roughly 3 times and then ran like a champ. Each time it died the check engine light was on, but didn't display any error codes. A tiny bit of coolant had come out, but no oil was in the intake. Any thoughts on what it was throwing the code for? I've had it on its side many times, but have always had the tether stall the engine out and no issues after starting.

Probably low oil pressure. Although you should have seen a code 30.

Yep, low oil pressure shut down. Happens when I lay mine I. It's side in powder. If you let it sit a minute or two before starting it, it usually doesn't happen. The low oil pressure safety supposably wasn't added until 2010 but my 09' does it.

All the phazers have low oil pressure detection, the newer phazers just have a better one.
