Hello, when it refuses to restart, have a helper crank it, while you check for spark at the plugs. If you have spark everywhere, use a fuel pressure gage and check fuel pressure. Are there any codes?

After it runs like a champ for 15 minutes it restarts in 10 minutes, no codes are on the dash reading out. I think it may be the caytlic converter?

I always check the basics first. It is possible the exhaust is clogging up.
