It doesnt sputter or anything, it just shuts down. Then it takes forever to start, but when it does start, it acts like nothings wrong. Could it be the fuel pump? If so, how would I go about checking that?

That or have starting fluid to see if when it's very fussy will snap it to instantly if only for a test would be good info, T thanos35 New User Mar 8, 2010, 4:37 AM Post #3 of 4 (1579 views) Re: Re:1999 Chrysler LHS 6 cyl Automatic - car dies Sign In I will try that.

If it doesn't move you are looking at a bad crank sensor.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
