So my 88 924s has been running great with no problems, until recently. I was at a red light and I looked over and saw that the radio was off, strange, when I attempted to hit the gas on the green light, there was almost no go, I got up to maybe 5mph and sputtered for awhile then stalled out and wouldn't start. I gave it a jump the next morning and it ran fine. Day after driving for awhile it did the same thing, I was stopped and it started to sputter, giving it gas did nothing, it stalled out and wouldn't start again. Today I jumped it, it started idled for a bit. I tried to give it gas, and it sputtered and stopped.

New radiator & hoses, timing belt, battery, dme relay, water pump.

Bad alternator or regulator? Have you measured the voltage at the battery while the car is running?
