Engine Mechanical problem
1992 Buick Century 6 cyl

What would cause the car to just abruptly stop running? The control module is within specs and so are the coil packs. I have replaced the ECM, the crank posistion sensor, the throttle posistion senor and i am now just confused over tha whole thing

Is this an intermittent issue? Does the vehicle start and run? If the vehicle cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it, while you visually check for spark at the plugs. If you have spark everywhere, use a gage and check fuel pressure. Any applicable trouble codes? You should be able to check mil codes yourself. You have to do testing, when the problem occurs. Intermittent issues can be a pain.
