I recently replaced the PCM in my 95 Cirrus because it refused to start. Once the new PCM was in it fired right up but did this thing where it dies while I am driving, no warning, engine just shuts off and the car coasts to a stop- RPMs and speedometer stay where they were before the engine quit. Mechanic said once I flashed the PCM this wouldn't happen but it does even more now. Recent had the crankshaft sensor, timing belt and distributor replaced. Bad PCM? What could it be?

I think you may have gotten a bad PCM. I would recommend having it rechecked.
