car dies while driving down road without warning. Try to restart over and over car starts then dies after 5-10 seconds. New fuel pump checked fuel resistor checked for vacuum leaks checked fuses think maybe maf sensor but do not know how to check also have been told ignition control module but do not know how to check that either any suggestions I am losing my mind
 


i had a similar problem to this in my 98 gtp, i was told basically the same thing as you were. my uncle told me before i start pulling stuff apart or take it to a mechanic, i should check the battery connection, it had some corrosion on it. i removed the corrosion with some fine grit sand paper and i never had the problem again. id say check the connections before anything else
 
this happened to me for the first time this morning, car starts, stalls 4-5 seconds later like clockwork. Fuse was good, couldnt pull the relay out so I unplugged the maf, same thing. Plugged maf back in, car runs now. Car started and died probably 15-20 times the exact same way before I checked the maf...pretty sure there must be something more...
 
my entire harness was corroded and i had this same problem, replaced the harness during the motor swap and didnt have anymore problems.

also change the fuel filter.
