I have a 1987 Buick Century with a tech 4, R code engine that will start ok, run for about 10 to 15 minutes then die. I can't start it back up for a period of time then it will start and do the same thing again. 126,00 miles and no problems till now. Am I looking at a fuel pump, control module or what? Please help. Thanks, Joe

Not being funny but how does it die?, the sound of fuel starvation/ or it just stops like that. First determined that the carb is still getting fuel /second check for fire at the plugs.Unsure
