If the service Engine light comes on, there should be a code stored. I'm leaning toward the crankshaft sensor. Also have you changed the spark plugs? How many miles do have on this vehicle?

is the service engine soon light on? If no light is on, it could be the ignition switch.

only sometimes the service engine lite will come on, more so when the fuel tanks is 3/4 full or /14 mark (dont know if this matters). I changed half of the plugs.. cant pull the boots off the rear of engine. Last time the Service engine lite came on I took it to the dealer and they found nothing stored. They told me i need to replace my water pump and there is a oil leak coming from the intake gasket. Buts is really odd it happens usually at 7 mins after I start engine. Tonight it worked ok past the 7 min mark w/o problems, but the RPM did change when I came to a stop lite, and it got a tiny rough for about 2 sec.

is there a way to monitor the fuel flow / psi while driving? are their any guages that can be attached? I'm suspecting a fuel cut out issue, but I had a new fuel pump installed so I dont think its the pump, I think it can be a relay.

Actualy they are very simple.Cam senser is onder coolant resevour,two 10mm nuts hold it toguether.One 10mm bolt holds the sensor.The crank sensor is a bit more tricky,you have to drop starter,Tow 15mm bolts,and two 10mm bolts on the plastic cover.

Stalling issues again

Hi me again, update on my 7-12 min stalling. I changed the water pump and the stalling slowly went away for a few days, then I found my upper hose clamp broke, and after I repaced it the stalling came back. I found that if I losen the radiator cap and reduce the pressure the stalling is almost gone. Now I suspect a crack gasket someplace. I didnt find any water in my oil so thats a good sign but its confuses me why it will stall only after (i guess) the engine heats up? but after I get it restarted, it runs fine even hot without stalling again. Someone said it could be an Engine temp sensor (which leans the mix like a throttle did) or possible an head gasket break on the exhaust port, when it heats up steam/water enters the cyc and causes the stall. Help!!

Are you still losing coolant after replacing the water pump? Are there any "check engine" lights on? Is there white smoke coming out of the exhaust after the car heats up?
What year is your Olds and how many miles?

2002 Olds Intrigue satlling during warm up

Cars stalls after 2 minutes on warm up. Checked the codes and got P0385 (Crankshaft Position Sensor). It then restarts and runs fine the rest of the day. I read many articles and believe this sensor located above the starter should be changed. My question: One of the articles says after replacement, the CKP System Variation learn procedure must be performed. This requires a Tech 2 scan tool at the dealership. Is this correct? If so, that means that you just can't take out the old one, replace it and drive away. It sounds like the dealer must perform the replacement for $300.

I've read conflicting positions on this. I've also heard about the need to do the "learn" procedure following replacing the CKS. But I've read of other owners replacing the sensor, not doing the learn procedure and having no issues. Below are a couple of exchanges discussing the crankshaft position sensor that may help:
