Sounds like ur hitting a bump or something and you may have a loose ground wire causing it

SOURCE: 96 sunfire dies after 4 or 5 miles

if none of those worked, try the fuel filter. some times it can clog. when you stop the stuff falls too the bottom and then when you start it is clogs it back up so it wont run. then you have to wait for it to fall again.

U can go to any autozone, kragen or other chain auto parts stores and they will run the trouble code test for free, let me know what they find if anything, this also may be a fuel pressure problem

SOURCE: Dies after running about 2 minutes

It's got all the symptoms of a leak in the fuel line. You may want to start backward at the tank and work your way all the way to the carb to find it but it would be surprising if it was something else. All the best.

SOURCE: Hard starting and dies at times while driving.

ignition coil pack it intermitten.

also check the crank sensor and the main crank pulley, this is where the engine gets its firing orders from

My 1998 Saturn,155,000 miles,began missing. OBD code #3 cylinder misfire. I verified spark to all 4 cylinders. Fuel pump runs. I did compression test. Ok After compression test,engine will not start.

Make sure the battery has a full charge. Sometimes with a lot of testing/cranking, it will run the battery down.
If you still have spark at all the plugs, use a gage and check proper fuel pressure, engine cranking. I've seen fuel pumps that would run, but, wouldn't make good fuel pressure. Also, check fuel injector pulse, engine cranking. Any applicable trouble codes?

2000 ford taurus jerks at driving speeds, and stalls when i come to a stop can anyone give suggestions

If you run the OBD II codes,it'll give you an idea. I would suspect the usual offenders......old spark plugs,wiring,or coil pack problem.
An EGR can cause jerking and dying, but so can a vacuum leak,usually accompanied by rough idle before the engine dies.
I just did my sister-in-law's plugs,wiring, and coil pack in THAT order,because the code only showed `MISFIRE,cyl. #2.'
Even though the plugs and wiring were pretty worn,it turned out the coil pack had gone bad.
Also,how long since you replaced your fuel filter? don-ohio (:^)

02 6 liter Denali sputtered and died while driving on highway. Started once or twice afterward but than died again. Has fuel pressure at fuel rail when pressing schrader valve with key on. Cranks, will...

possibly 4 things 1 bad ignition coil heating up then breaking down,2 clogged fuel filter,3 weak fuel pump,4 bad throttle position sensor or map sensor to check sensors simply put on hand held scanner and look for codes. replace fuel filter replace coil pack along with tune up plugs wires put fuel pressure gauge to see if fuel pump is working properly

Trouble codes for saturn ls2 car is showing the following trouble codes. po300, po306, po451 p2bo3 and c112b

P0300 Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected

P0306 Cylinder 6 Misfire Detected

P0451 EVAP Pressure Sensor Range/Performance

I have no idea what those last two are. Typo, maybe?

Your first two codes could be caused by old spark plugs and/or leaking plug wires.

Your EVAP code could be a bad fuel tank pressure sensor or a malfunctioning EVAP system. With that code, if you remove your fuel cap and get a whoosing sound, then it is an issue with your EVAP system not properly venting the tank. If you don't get that sound, then the tank pressure sensor is bad.

Misfires and codes PO316, PO306, & PO305 popped up on the diagnostics check. What needs to be fixed based on that?

You will need to replace no 5 and no 6 coil pack and spark plugs. P0316 is random missfire that computer could not detect the cylinder that was causing it,just knew one was missfiring.
Coil packs are common concern on these vehicles. Can get oil leak into the coil pack wells and may also even get moisture into them.
If yours is a 3.9L it may be involved in owner satisfaction program 07M07 or 07N09 in which they will cover them under the program for up to 10yrs or 100000 miles which ever comes first.
