Hi, I am hoping you can help me. While driving my car to work on the highway, it will shut off randomly. I can usually restart it while it is moving, but sometimes I have to pull over and let it sit. It has done this about 5 or 6 times in the last month. Twice it gave me a service engine light with the cam sensor code. I installed a new cam sensor, but I still have the same problem. Could it be the magnet on the cam sprocket? Or possibly an ignition module, coil problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Regards, Paul

Ignition module good choice before you get into parts replacing next time it quits pull over will need a helper. Pull plug wire hold next to block spark? Also spray carb cleaner into intake crank does it fire? Results will help point to problem.
