1998 Honda CR-V Stalls While Driving

Suggested Repair

Replace the crankshaft position sensor, which one expert said is usually behind the timing belt cover, and consider replacing the timing belt at the same time. Also check whether a check engine light is present and look for diagnostic codes 8 and 9 by jumpering the ECU connection.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 1998 Honda CR-V says the engine starts normally but stalls while driving and will not restart for 30 minutes to an hour, then runs as if nothing happened. The coil, fuel filter, and fuel pump were already replaced without solving the recurrent problem. Both experts recommend replacing the crank position sensor. One also suggests replacing the timing belt and checking for codes 8 and 9 at the ECU diagnostic connection.
