    car dies when hot

    So Ill be driving everything is fine Ill go for about 20mins and it will start sputtering, slowly getting worse until I can't drive it anymore. Ill pull over sometimes it wont start, if I wait 20mins it will work again but only for a bit...

    The longer I want for it to cool down the longer It will work for.

    I'm looking at possibly the fuel pump.. any others?

        coolant temp sensor?
        is your idle erratic as well?
        try just unplugging it and see if it still does it.

          tried the coolant temp sensor when my car died on the highway today, no go
          idle is fine until I have this problem
