92 lesabre dies at light

alright, My car just dies at the light, dash lights stay on, sometime tho, they dont. It starts right back up as soon as i turn the key. here lately though, its been taking a little more time each time. The first time it happened, My fuel guage was close to Empty, so I thought, maybe im just low on gas. I filled it up, it ran fine for a while, a few days later, still with more than 3/4 of a tank, It did it again, and has been every since, like every other day maybe, sometimes twice a day, depends on how much i drive, i hardly ever drive more than 20 miles per day. any ideas?

Could be the Ignition Control Module, the fuel delivery system, the PCM (computer), or other things. It is worth taking to a good mechanic unless you have the proper diagnostic equipment.

Possibly the crank position sensor is going out.

First, check the fuel pressure. It should be around 40psi. You could just have a weak pump.

What kind of shape are the plugs, wires, fuel filter, and ICM in? Any vacuum leaks (have you replaced vacuum hoses lately?)?
