KA Shuts Down
After running the car for some time it will just shut down while I'm driving it. This started last weekend. I haven't had another problem until today. I was running some errands and on the way home and it cuts off. Last weekend, I checked it out, oil, MAF, vaccuum lines, spark, etc. Everything is intact but I can't find a reason for the shutdown. Any ideas?

Check the ignition primary coil. might have gone bad. I have the same problem right now and i checked cka, maf, ignition. still stuck. when i flashed the ecu itpulled a knock sensor code, so check that as well as the ect

What have you done to yours cause i think now it might be the ICU? The TPS also had a glitch so I replaced that, I'm testing the ICU tomorrow and installig a MSD. But if the ICU is bad that would explain alot.
Knock Sensor code from what I've been told is very common because the sensor is way to sensative, and the ICU will throw codes like Ignition and Crank Angle.
Check your ICU or swap it. it might not be my problem but it could be yours. I"ll find out tomorrow if it mine. I"ll let you guys know.

Yessir! The power transister was my problem.
Little did I know i had a datalink connector on the driver side (the retainer clip was broke so I had to search for it) and I plugged a scantool in and the primary coil and power transistor have gone bad, and that can cause the cas to throw a code. And is what causes the intermittent stall.
Check yours out to and that could be your problem too. now i might as well put in a blaster coil, new transister and what the hell, an MSD, my first upgrade from bone stock
