had battery load tested and it was fine..
wal-mart could not understand why i was replacing it..
it is 5 yr battery and only a few months from the 5 yrs..
i dont want my sister stranded with battery that is old,she runs everything on her car in heat,very hard on battery..
i am doing this also on my batterys, i got stranded last year in winter hunting at dark..
my battery was about 5 yrs old ,so now, i get them out and new one in..
they are only 53 dollars at wal mart for 9yr pro rate battery,the best..

anyhow, maybe this was something do to heat but i am reading that a lot of cavaliers are stalling in stop/go traffic....

it showed no codes and garage could not find anything wrong....
very tough one..
whatever it was,letting it sit for awhile allowed car to start..
like said, i have olds did this but it started right back up..
i had chevy truck do it but it did not start right back up and it was distributor cap/rotor.....
