I recently purchased this celebrity from a friend for $200. The car was overheating badly and I was afraid the block was cracked and I first noticed the fan needed to be replaced and I thought that was the problem. I checked everything possible and there is no indication the block is cracked at all. The motor mount is off due to him letting it overheat so much the motor has shaken alot. So we put a new fan in and relay and the car seemed to running perfect. Its no longer overheating. I drove it about 50 miles without altercation and then the car stalled. Whats happening is it runs good for a while and then when you come to a stop, it doesnt happen every time but sometimes, it will die. I mean sometimes I drive 30 miles and its ok and sometimes I drive 13 miles and it starts to act up. You can start the car back up immeadiatly no problem after it stalls and when you put it in drive it will stall. If you let it sit for 5-10 minutes it will eventually go into drive but usually when you put it in drive it dies. If you let it sit for a while it works fine. Its totally random. But does happen alot. What do you think the problem is? If you could suggest anything it would help.....
