On three occasions, I am driving along and the engine stops, like it is out of gas. It will start up after 10-15 minutes and then stalls again for good. I've had it towed to the shop and the first time they replaced the rotor and the distributor cap. The second time they replaced the crank sensor. The first time it ran good for two weeks. The second time it ran for a week. This time it stalled when I got home. A friend of mine says that it could be the Electronic control module. Could that be the problem, and where is the ECM.
