gtp shutting of while driving

[tammy]

Ok Help I have a 2000 gtp and while driving at times it shut down on me, it would take a few seconds to start. I change the fuel pump and mass air flow sensor and the car still shut down, What can I do.

do the rpms just drop to zero on the dash then the car shuts off soon after???

Sounds like maybe another flaky CPS. Do you have a CEL on?

 

[tammy]

yes the rpm drops to zero,and my abs,tcs lights are also on.

CranKshaft Positiion Sensor. And I agree on the diag.

Well, if you want to be all techni, tekni, well you know then yes it IS a crankshaft position sensor. I stand corrected :th_winking:

Whatever its called I have to put one in the Bonne now, dang it! I better not stick the balancer back on like Bedwards or I'm screwed.

 

[BillBoost37]

Only reason I got technical is because if they go in for a cps, they'll get a camshaft position sensor.

 

[FordMan77]

Never thought about that one. Duh. I need coffee.

 

[tammy]

just a belated thank you all for your answers... It was the cps

 

[BillBoost37]

It was the Cam Position Sensor, CPS? Or the CranK Postiion Sensor, CKPS? Usually it's the cranky postiion sensor. Yes..I've asked that the name include the "y" as they do get cranky...lol
