My son was driving his 96/auto home this weekend and it just died on him. He states it was running fine. 15 minutes and multiple crank attemps later, the car started. It made it about 3 miles and died again. I show up, it starts again after 15 minutes of trying and he drives it home 3 miles. Won't restart after shut down.
The car has fuel, the engine turns over, I am unsure if spark right now
Next morning I get it started and drive from the street to the garage. Shut it off and it won't restart.
I checked the distributor and it was dripping some oil when I removed the cap screws. Although there wasn't any oil in the cap or on the rotor.
I pull the codes and get three; P0340-camshaft position sensor, P0500-vehcile speed sensor, P0325-knock sensor.
Is this a common problem, where should I start?
Thanks, Steve.
