It may be an issue with your ignition switch, I had a similar problem with my Honda Accord. I was able to find a replacement for a good price on an online used auto parts store.

SOURCE: replaced timing belt and car won't run

You had better check the timing belt again, you may have done something wrong and it skipped teeth.

Car runs fine but after driving turn off engine sometimes it wont restart for hours

This sounds like a hot fuel pump issue. The pump is getting hot on the circuit and is cutting out.

Ford taurus 2001 car start but once the car is cut off it won't start up again until it cools off the car is not running hot.

After you kill it, when you try to start it back up, does the starter turn the motor? Or is it froze up (will not turn over)?

Hi, without testing the car, and knowing miealge on car, ill guess coil is faulty or you can go to any large parts store the new franchise type. They will come out and put a tester on usually free and just might save you a lot of money, before a mechanic tells you to rebuild the motor for 3,000. Good luck to you! Frankie!

Run a self test on the computer for any trouble codes that might be stored that will lead us to the problem, Kragen auto and others will do this for free. get back to me on this thread with those codes.
