The car has had its starter replaced and the terminals of the batteries have been cleaned, I'm thinking its a grounded fault, perhaps a fault in the fuel system but as I am driving down the road no matter whether I am going fast or slow It'll stall out and not start again for upwards of 15 minutes. This problem is recent and the starter was replaced because of the solenoid going bad on it, thought it might help with the problem but it has not been fixed. Added drygas to the fuel as it also coencides with a recent fill-up but that wouldn't explain the stall after I've dry gassed it and tested the systems, no SES or Mechanical light has come on. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Even though the SES isn't on, get the codes pulled anyway, some faults don't turn on the light but will set a code.

As far as the no start, the 1st step would be to see what you a losing, spark or fuel. Once you know that then you'll have a better idea of what to look at next...
