The engine runs while it is cold, but then dies when it heats up. We have changed several sensors, camshaft sensor, throttle position sensor

Sorry, but I was mistaken. The camshaft, crankshaft, and manifold sensor was replaced. Coil and coil module, wires, plugs, and fuel filter were also replaced.

OK, again, fuel pressure and spark need to be verified.
What was the fuel pressure? Was it monitored while you were driving and when it dies?

It's not that I was not happy with the answer, I would have said the same thing! Is there anything else you can think of?

If you want me to help, I need information. So far, you have given me no information.
There are so many possibilities and you have to start somewhere. I always start at the basics.
I do not guess. That is expensive and most of the time wrong.

I have checked the fuel pressure setting still, but not when it dies. Maybe I should go that route. I am sorry about the missing information. I should tell you my husband and dad are the ones working on it. I am just relaying messages. The car runs and quits sitting still, too. I guess I should tell them to check the pressure after it dies. After they do this, can I let you know what it says?

Is there anything else I can tell them to check? This car started doing this almost a year ago, and alot has been checked, but maybe they missed something. My dad is actually a retired mechanic and my husband has always worked on everything from cars to coal trucks. Maybe they are missing something simple.

It could be the ecm not allowing the injectors to fire, wiring, crank sensor, ignition module and related wiring are some of the possibilities.

Thank you so much! I will have them check this while I'm crossing my fingers, and let you know if it works!
