[QUOTE="zghorner, post: 2728196, member: 35089"] That's a good idea man especially since it throws a code 14 - CTS / coolant temp sensor. I replaced the sensor as well as the plug and still the same thing. Traced the wires the best I could with no damage found. Checked all my grounds and power cable and fusable links. Had the car on a rack for 30 minutes with the rear wheels elevated "driving" at 50 mph while my mechanic friend tapped and wiggled everything and we couldn't get it to act up. 5 minutes of highway driving on my way home and it dies like usual. One thing is the CTS gets its power and ground from the ECM. If the ignition switch doesn't fix it then I will try to find a good ECM locally and see if that's the problem. I wanted to do the IGN switch first because its a $15 part and was 30 years old vs a $100 ECM. [/QUOTE]
