Engine Performance problem
1999 Chrysler Cirrus 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

My question is: What would make the car die at normal driving speed? I have no check engine lights that come on and the guages are fine. I have no codes that show up. I have had the battery tested and its fine. The alternator is ok too. I have also thought that it might be the fuel pump but it has also been tested and it is ok. Do you have any ideas?

When it dies, does it start right back up?

WHat I need you to do is check for spark and fuel to the engine when it doesn't start. One has to be missing. If you need directions, let me know.

The spark and fuel is there yet it just dies. Some ppl on line have been saying its the crankshaft sensor or it might be the ECM. I just need to know which one cause its hard to just keep replacing parts and blowing all kinds of money.
