I am having nothing but headaches. It started when my battery died. Replaced it, now I'm having problems with the car stalling. After it runs for 10 minutes or so, it will stall out and not start again until sitting for a long period of time. Read other places about a crank sensor, and mass air flow sensor. Afraid to spend money on both if I don't need to. Please help!

Do you have a check engine light on, also when it stalls is the security light blinking.

Yes, my check engine light has been on for some time. The security light is not coming on any more, although it has been an issue in the past. I just replaced the battery, and it worked for a day or two.

Stop at a local parts store like auto zone or something like that and have it scanned and get me the trouble codes and I can try to help you. Does it just stall out of no where or does it misfire when it does it then stall
