What you're describing seems suspiciously like an electric component that is overheating and failing. It could be fuel pump, ignition control module, coil, electrical connector or... something else. When it stops next time check to see if you still have spark. Carry a used sparkplug with you and when your car won't start, pull one spark plug wire, connect it to the spare sparkplug and lay the sparkplug on a metal surface of the engine. Have someone crank the engine and see if you get a good, healthy spark on the spare plug. If not, you have at least found out that it's ignition. Then track it backward from there. If you are lucky, your onboard diagnostics might even have detected a component failure. Run a diag test and see if the computer has anything useful. I would check the crank sensor. I spent over $500.00 in my car.Come to find out from a local garage that it was the crank sensor that was a $16.00 part.

Why does your Oldsmobile stall after driving it for awhile then start back up after waiting?

I believe it has something to do with the "lockdown" where the transmission does not shift down causing the engine to stall....On the driver's side of the engine toward the front bottom there is a BLUE connection that if you disconnect the override should not occur.........have an 85 cutlass ciera have been driving it that way over a decade and solved the same problem for me..........try it......Cutlass~Cutee

My 1991 Oldsmobile cutlass red temp lite flashes and the check engine lite comes on it runs hot and rough then stalls replaced thermostat and two fan sensors?

Was the car actually running hot? Is there water in the oil? You could have a weak head gasket that starts to lek under driving conditions. Get it in the shop before you crack a head. If the car is running hot, does it over heat while driving or will it overheat at a stop? If it does it will driving, check your trans fluid. About half of nuisance overheating can be traced back to the trans fluid cooler in the radiator.
