Exclamation Car stalling for no reason, help

Symptoms are i get it checked out by the dealer ship and it works for exactly 1200 k, then it starts the bull all over again, well i thought it was the theft system but that cant be see as how it has been disconnected, and i was thinkin that it might be the temp sensor because the car is designed to shut off if the car is too hot, and my last resort is the ECU is fubared, but today i let it idle while i went into the bank, came out it was still running, started drivin, it stalled, i pulled into the nearest parkin lot it wouldnt start so i went to get lunch, came back waited another 10 mins cause i was waitin for a ride and it started ran fine after that, if anyone has heard of this problem and it has alll of its recalls done, im at the point where i replace the temp, sensor and then the ecu just to make sure, if there is anything else that might cause it to stall tellin me would be appreciated very much

Re: Car stalling for no reason, help

your car can and will overheat, computer doesnt care about a melted engine, all it will do is try do keep it cool with the fan, hence the temp sensor.

did you have the fuel pump looked at? sounds like it's getting fuel and then cant make enough pressure to get off idle for very long. I'd have a fuel pressure test done.

You found out it was your STARTER!?%*#! Do you know what exactly was wrong with it? The starter shouldn't have anything to do with a stalling problem.
