Re: 97 monte carlo z34 dies

Sounds like either your battery or your alternator is shot. The newer vehicles will not run on just the alternator like the old ones used to. if the alternator is not charging the car will runn till the battery looses enough of the power then dies, after it sits a while the battery will recover possible enough to start the car but then soon dies again. I would start by having the battery/alternator checked. Sounds like a simple enough problem if it is just the battery or the alternator and not really worth getting rid of , unless it has given you problems before. I know what it is like to constantly be repairing a vehicle.
