My 2000 Chevy Monte Carlo
repairs made = new fuel pump
fuel filter
pressure regulator
crank sensor
comments = Dear BL:
engine starts and runs
for about 5 minutes then the car dies and won't start until it cools
down.
BL:
Were the parts replaced to repair this same condition?
Any codes?
What engine size?
The 3.4l engine has two crank sensors, a 24x and a 7x. The 7x is between the
rear of the engine and the trans. The 24x is behind the crank pulley.
The crank sensor on the 3800 is behind the crank pulley.
With either sensor behind pulley, a 'crankshaft position sensor variation' relearn
must
be performed.
I would definitely keep an eye on fuel pressure when it dies and wont restart.
Have had some wiring harnesses rub through on a/c accumulator (bulletin).
Usually that causes intermittent problems.
Have had a few pcm failures that cause this also.
Need to know what causing the die/no start------
No/low fuel pressure, no spark, theft light on (possible ignition switch problem).
