Engine stalls at 55 MPH
While driving a '91 Tempo on the highway it suddenly stalled. It would not restart. Towed it in and left it sitting for a week. Decided to try it again and it fired right off but stalled after 10 seconds. Again, it would not restart. I heard the fuel pump in the rear of the car during ignition on/off so I don't think it's the pump. When cranking the engine it sounds like it's not firing. So I think it's an electrical problem but can't pinpoint it. Does anybody know what it could be?

I discovered the coil wasn't putting out spark so I installed a new one. It started up fine and run for several minutes before quitting just like when you turn the key off. Of course it will not restart. And the new coil is not putting out fire. Could the new coil be bad or is something zapping it?

Odd, My Camaro did the same thing the other day at about 45 mph on this crazy road in the country with a million turns. All I could hear in my head was my dads voice saying dont use the brakes. Anyways coasted for a mile or so into a gas station where I had to use the "Im gonna pull the parking brake so I dont die a fiery death" maneuver. I was thinking it is a crusty old fuel filter because my fuel pump still works. And I can get it to start but it sputters and dies. Might be air in the fuel lines too. Or a broken/incorrect gas gauge. OH this is a few days early but HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
