    I was thinking that but thought they failed when car was hot, and would start again when it cooled down, on a side note, I have been hearing a clicking noise under the dash for about two weeks, and now when I was trying to start it I noticed I cant turn the heat on or up, is my main computer going bad maybe?

    once they fail they wont throw a code. also if your thinking its the pump do you hear the pump when you turn the key to the on position? i had a fuel pump go and it would run for 2 seconds then die. was really easy to fix tho

    why dont you figure out whats missing after it stalls? like does it have spark still, or is it out of fuel at the rail?

    does the tach move when you crank the engine after it stalls?

    pull the vac line off the fpr on the fuel rail, see if gas comes out the line, if nothing comes out sniff the vac line, to see if you smell gas. if you find any of that it need s new fpr.

    and double check the grounds on the tranny and the battery terminals are tight and clean.
