once the car has been started it will suddenly quit running while driving and when restarted it will rev up to three thousand rpm. once the car cools down for a longer period of time it will suddenly run just fine .what could be the reason for this problem ? thank you for your response clyde canaday jr.

It could be many things. A bad MAF, TPS, IAC... could cause it. Also, a bad fuel pump can do it too. Has the check engine light come on? Have you checked fuel pump pressure?

Let me know.
