99 (New Body) Jetta Stalling problem.. No Check engine light.

[koocuz]

Hi there, i have a 99.5 VW Jetta with a major issue that i would like some advice on diagnosing and fixing.. It stalls randomly (When the engine is warm) and instantly... If you wait 10-40min. you can get it started again for a short distance until it stalls again.. There is no check engine light being registered i am wondering where to start! I have been told to replace the Crank Position Sensor however due to the very expensive nature of these parts i would just like to be sure since there is no check engine light comming on..

Car has 105k on it and is a manual transmission. 2.0l engine.

What scares me is that i have also heard these items could be a cause.. Coil, Fuel pump, Fuel pump Relay, Engine Speed sensor, MAF.. ect..
Thanks in advance!

Suprizingly since no one replied.. I am pretty sure the Coil is Shot, when it gets hot it cuts out. Its currently unbolted from the engine and its running better. New coil is comming. We shall see what happens.

You may have already got this fixed but I thought I would post my fix to this just in case some people are looking for the same solution.

My Jetta was having the exact same problems. I replaced the coil, spark plug and wires. Fuel filter and pump had been replaced the year before and still had issues. Finally found the culprit of the stalling. It was the RPM sensor. Replaced it and it runs fine.
