The car starts runs for awile then cuts off during idle or driving. I changed the plugs, plug wires, pcv valve fuel filter(pump is working. I flushed a very dirty radiator

It may restart but will shut right off until it won't start, then time is required to restart. I have not checked for spark when it won't start. I am not familiar with checking codes.I was looking at possibly the Engine coolant temperature senser, erg valve or idle air control valve

Take it to a auto parts store like auto zone and they will scan your computer for free. Let me know the exact code numbers if you have any.
