I can start the car and drive for about 10 to 15 minutes then after that it just shuts off until it cools down a bit. Would this be the fuel pump or some sort of sensor?

Hello,

This could be a problem with your vehicle's CYP sensor, which is located in the distributor housing. In the diagrams down below I have included a description of how the CYP sensor works and instructions for the removal, inspection, and installation of the CYP sensor for your vehicle. Please go through these guides and get back to us with what you find out.

Thanks,
Alex
