The certified flight instructor (CFI) stated that the engine lost power while in cruise flight en route to a designated practice area. The CFI performed the emergency checklist and initiated a forced landing to a nearby road. The right wing struck a street sign as the CFI steered the airplane to the right to avoid an oncoming vehicle during the landing roll. Examination of the airplane revealed that the fuselage and right wing were structurally damaged. The left and right wing fuel vent lines were clear and free of debris. A source of fuel was plumbed into the wing root line fitting and the engine was started and run at various RPM settings with no abnormalities. No anomalies were noted with the engine or airframe. Recovery personnel recovered 28 gallons of fuel from the airplane and the fuel system was free of debris. The reason for the loss of engine power was not determined.
Probable Cause: The loss of engine power for undetermined reasons. Contributing to the accident were the sign and a vehicle.
