I have a problem that started just recently. While driving my Corvette on the highway, the motor suddenly quit running. No check engine light came on, and there was no warning. I coasted to a stop and tried to start the engine, but to no avail. After making arrangements to have it towed, about 10 minutes on the phone, I tried the car and it started back up. This has happened on 4 different occasions, but each time, after waiting about 10-15 minutes, the car starts. I have checked the computer to see if there are any error codes, but there were none. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi mjandres, Welcome to 2carpros and TY for the donation

Next time the car pulls that on you don't wait for nothing do below and comeback with some testing results we start here.

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 away from ground-have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
