Little Problem
Well about 3 days ago I did my tune up cap,rotor,wires,and spark plugs and it ran well for me the whole day.The next day I was in traffic and it just turned off and it wouldn't start cranked and cranked until it started.So today the same thing happened twice but this time I was driving it just died and it didn't start for 30 mins until it turned over only to die again 10 min later.I don't really know where to start finding out what the problem is.Ran great back home but I'm starting to get worried it might happen to me while driving in the freeway.No SES light btw

Re: Little Problem
Check that the ignition module has thermal grease under it. If it gets too hot, the car will die and won't start until it's cooled off.

Re: Little Problem
What about thermal grease on the ignition coil?I threw away the grease that the wires brought...

Re: Little Problem
Could be the VATS system doing it too. Is the security light on?
