Hello, I would go off the first response that you recieved, it is called a crank sensor, an easy way to diagnose the crank sensor is to watch your tach when the car dies. If the tach drops you know that it is the crank sensor. Your crank sensor is designed to take and accurate reading for your distributor to fire upon crank position. It is a little sensor that looks down over the "flexplate or flywheel" when the crank sensor goes bad like any other circuit or contact it goes open circuit and looses contact and will not work anymore so the engine will shut down, after it cools off and regains contact within the sensor the car will work again like normal. If you tach does not fall when it dies, then you have a fuel related problem, fuel pressure regulator, accumalator or pump...... we can go from there, good luck!!!!
