Car just dies at running temp with no further fire until it cools down. Replaced the crank shaft sensor back in February and it had been running fine until a week ago. ICM tests are good. Coil packs have remained cool when it has died. Plenty of pressure in the fuel filter. At a loss here. Can anyone help?

Do you have spark when it won't start? proper fuel pressure? Post the engine also.

It's a 3.1L V6. Guess that does help:screwy:. There's no further fire when I try to turn it back over until it cools down. Could I have a false read on the ICM test because it was cold when it was tested?

Yes, this is an atypical icm failure as well as the cps.
