[QUOTE="scott degroot, post: 943125, member: 66039"] I am not sure if shuts off normal means that it instantly dies when the problem occurs or if it stumbles and bogs and then dies as there is nothing normal about a vehicle shutting off while it is moving. When it dies will it restart instantly or do you have to wait a minute or 2. If it just instantly dies then you are looking at something electricial such as a crankshaft position sensor but if it stumbles and bogs then dies you are more than likely looking at a fuel issue. Find a good repair shop and get it in before it dies on you in the middle of an intersection while you are trying to beat the semi that is coming towards you...going to a dealership is not a guarantee of a good repair shop.
