Thank you. The box is the orange box. I put it in about a 6 months ago from mp. Ill put another one in. Also a previous poster mentioned the magnetic pick up in the distributer. That part is at least 5/6 years old. Are those available like the protonics? Coil is also 6 months old.

The orange box from mp is a pile of crap. Get it off even if it isn't the problem now because it will be a problem soon enough.

Does the car start right back up? Or does the car have to sit for like 20 min before it starts again? Hard to tell not being there to see it in person.

If it's a fuel issue you would think it would buck or something before it died.

I've had a couple cars over the years do what it sounds like yours is doing and it was the magnetic pick up in the distributor. It's a cheap repair. Napa used to carry the pickup. That orange box is always suspect too.
