Will not stay in idle long enough to switch into gear before dying. Used to do this on first start up of day but now doing it even after warmed up.

I have a 1999 Stratus as a standby but lately the engine cuts out without any apparent cause. I've replaced the fuel pump, the computer and a couple of sensors but after I drive it for a half hour, it just stops and I have to wait an hour before it will restart again. It seems like something happens when the motor gets warmed up, but it doesn't overheat, either. A lot of people seem to have this same problem but who has the solution.

Just replaced timing belt on a 2003 DOHC Sedan, Timing is dead on, have spark and compression but cranks like no spark plugs are in it. How do I find out if this is an interference engine?#69 of 69 Re: 1997 Stratus won't run after it rains. [crash34] by bigred6801

Next time it happens go put there and take the disturber cap off and blow it with a blow dryer and blow down in the place where the disturber is put it back together and see of it will start. Sorry about the spelling
