So the car cranks ok but will not start ( fire) and it takes awhile to get it fired up agian. You noted also it just died while driving on the road?. I am just reconfirming things as I am not there. There could be many things to cause this so I am trying to work 123. Thanks as there will surely be more questions.

Ok, thanks for more info.The one thing I am finally trying to understand. When it dies,you are having to jump it? are you saying it is like a dead battery even if the battery tested good? OR does the starter crank BUT car does not start up? There is a huge difference between the 2. basically is it cranking ( starter working) or not cranking ( starter not cranking). lights shortly I hope.

I am not going to submit this as an answer at this time. Still, I realize the lights and yes they may be some sort of indication but neither of them should be in any wa directly related to a "no start" condition.They may be getting triggered by an electrical problem but you or the tech must go back to basic. This is what we do at the shop on any car with this type problem. Just to throw in, the tank pressure is monitored by pressure switch. This is for emmisions. If you leave a cap off, the pressure drops and light comes on. If the tech maybe left a loose hose clamp or line loose in any way to include vent, fill and overflow lines (hoses) that light will set. As far as traction, I am unsure about that. back to baisics. When car does not start, someone needs to be ready to check for what is missing ( fuel or spark or both) easiest thing to do first is have can of carb cleaner on hand. When you have a no start, remove the large black hose going to throttle body or find aircleaner and gently spray the cleaner in the intake. If car starts, runs rough and then stalls when you are done spraying, the spark is good and you have a fuel delivery problem. If car will not try to restart with cleaner, then you have a spark problem. You need to isolate which one. It is very important as to what direction we take on the diag chart. No guessing. I am at computer each morning for sevral hours early, then back each evening for a few hours. sometimes off/on during the day. I will get your answer or what the tech come up with. LMK. Then we will go to step 2 when I know what we are chasing. Thanks for the patience. Good luck
