My car starts just fine, but when I drive it long enough for it to warm up it just dies. The check engine light is on, and after it cools off for a while it will start back and do the same thing. I have changed the coil pack and the fuel filter. Please help!

Take it in and get the check engine light scanned and post back what it is in P**** format. Not what the code means when defined.

Let me know what you find.

Autozone scans for free.

As the check engine light is on, go to the nearest Autozone and have them scan the computer. Please post the code NUMBERS here, and we'll help diagnose.

If the vehicle is not drivable, insert the key in the ignition and cycle the key to ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON. And look at the odometer screen, and jot down the codes being displayed.
