Ok this car sat for about a year. I replaced the ignition and the battery, Changed the oil and Filter and the air filter and while it was broke down I replaced the coil packs and spark plugs. It started and it ran for a few minutes and the would run very rough, I found a few Vacuum lines that were bad replaced them and it started right up and ran fine for a few days. Now it will die sometimes while it is Idling and then not start. If you wait a while it starts right up and runs fine.
Any Ideas?

Hi there,

Thank you for the donation,

Do a scan and check for any unresolved fault codes, check the fuel pressure & flow, check for contaminants in the fuel, replace the filter if you have not done so already, see how that goes and re post if you still have a problem.

Remove the ignition module and have it tested free at any autoparts store in addition to the great advice by Mark.

The car is now in the shop, stopped running all together, I know it's fuel related but I haven't the time to fix it. I'll repost with what the problem was!
