Smile Cure for Aurora's dying periodically at stop signs, PROBLEM SOLVED!!

After purchasing my 98 Aurora, i had trouble with the engine stalling at stop signs without any warning at all, it would die and then simply start back up, and the only way to keep it from dying eventually was to shift into neutral at stop signs to keep it going (it stalled only when the engine was warm). Everyone on here said Crankshaft sensors were the culprit, my ses light pointed out the torque converter but I went ahead with the cheaper fix of replacing the crankshaft sensors and the car hasn't died since i got it back, the price tag for labor and parts for, an oil change, tune up, and crankshaft/cam shaft sensor replacement was under $500. There are 2 crankshaft sensors and one cam shaft sensor I replaced all three to make sure I solved the problem. It really DID WORK! Runs like a dream. 107k on the car. If you replace the crankshaft senors be sure to replace both, the mechanic thought there was only one and when I first got it back it ran worse than when I brought it in, when he put the second crank sensor in it fixed the problem and runs great!
