Hey guys,
I'm working with a friend on this problem. 2003 496 8.1. Very weird. When he starts the engine and lets it idle it just shuts down at random times. Just shuts right off, no sputter or anything. Wait a min and starts right up most of the time. It could run for 5 min or 45 min without a problem before it shuts down. Twice it wouldn't start after it shut down then waited 15 min and started right up. Doesn't happen when cruising. He changed the crank sensor so far. No alarms or anything. Any Idea what it could be? Anyone have this problem?
