Start with the battery cables complete checks for deteriorated cable inside the plastic at the ends.
 
Check the battery for a broken post inside the battery that makes contact and then doesn't make contact.

Put a post in Ask a Technical Question. Alcan may know something to check or someone else there may know what's likely problem.

Does the tachometer go to zero the instant it cuts out?

If the tach hits zero as soon as the problem starts even before the final stall you might have a crankshaft position sensor problem.
 
Or check the fuse #19 in the underhood fuse panel--it has the black cover that snaps over it on the passengerside of the underhood--with the large red battery cables going into it on one end.
 
I picked these up from another discussion where someone had similar problems. One person said they cleaner the crankshaft position sensor with WD40 spray through the access hole without replacing it.
 
You may email the address in my profile if you need more info to check for yourself. You may be able to email from the MySpace here on Edmunds to my name in MySpace??? I haven't figured out most of that stuff.

Try to e-mail you from my space but the message came back.

No Spark by zip4202

Hello my dad has a 89 lesabre and it has no spark. We have replaced the coil pack, computer, plugs and the crackshaft sensor is only about a year old. Im in the process of finding the relay and testing the power. Would the camshaft sensor or any sensor cause no spark? Any help would be useful. Thanks
