Re: 98 pontiac sunfire turns over but wont stay runing

Replace the temp sensor and then reset your computer. You can do this by unhooking "both" battery cables, waiting for 15 minutes then rehooking them up and starting the car. See if this takes care of the problem.
First,check your coolant over flow container,if real low,then you have a leak somewhere,if okay and it's not running hot,then your coolant temperature switch is bad.
Try fuel filter if you haven't changed it recently. It is a place to start. If you have not tuned it up recently do that also. Always do preventitive maintenance first before thinking its a major problem.
There is a plug located on top of the transmission under the brake master cylinder. It is held in place by a bolt on the side of the transmission near the firewall. Remove the bolt, then remove the plug. Fill it until the fluid comes out of the hole.
