I own a 5 spd - 96 Cavalier and for the past 6 months it stalls while driving for no apparent reason. Sometimes it will not start after sitting overnight. It doesnt matter if I am gearing down, speeding up or driving at a constant speed. I have been keeping a log to see if anything is making it happen and it seems to be random. After the car stalls the gauges will blink and flash, the speedometer will jump up to 80km and back down dozens of times while the car isnt running. Sometimes it can take 5 mins or 1 hour before the car will restart. The car runs great besides this stupid problem. Occasionally when the car does restart the ABS light remains. Last week the theft light stayed on until I turned it off.
The mechanics are getting no codes and of course it starts up right away when it gets towed to the garage.
The car has a new battery. It seems to be electrical but without codes I am lost and so are they. Please help me with some serious suggestions only. Thank you so much. It is getting cold and I would hate to be in subzero temperatures stuck on a highway somewhere freezing to death waiting for the damn thing to restart!
