I've had three different mechanics look at my car, and all of them have told me "there's nothing wrong with it that I can see". Here's what happens: after driving the car around town for about 20-30 minutes, it starts to jerk forward and then stalls. After allowing the car to rest for about 5-10 minutes, it starts back up and runs for about another 15 minutes. It only stalls if it is in drive (not when in park and idling), and it does it without warning. No check engine light or any other idiot lights come on. In the past year, I have replaced the ECM, the throttle control sensor, O2 sensor, plugs and wires, and battery. I've had the mechanic check the fuel pump, and it is apparently not the problem. I've read that other GM owners have had problems with the TCC solenoid. Could this be the problem, or is it something else that my mechanics have missed?
