crank sensor
not question
at about 115000 miles on the 01 catera models the crank sensor will go
the symptoms are the car shuting off at random at anytime usualy when the car is warmed up
IT IS NOT YOUR FUEL PUMP!
if you crack the fuel lines open when cranking the car no fuel will be present, this is because the car is getting no crank signal, the pcm doesnot know the car is cranking so its not going to send any fuel
and then you have to wait about 10 to 30 minutes to start it again (cool down)
keep in mind the car will not shut off at highway speeds (about 55)
the car will be driving and everything will cut out like the alt cut out but it is in fact the crank sensor
im not sure on tsb's on it but im looking for them
let me know if anyone has had a similar problem
