My 98 Cutlass is in perfect condition - never had any indication something was wrong. New oil, over half a tank of gas, new battery, new belt ... EVERYTHING! Out of nowhere, as I'm waiting at a red light, my car just shuts off. No lights on to indicate an issue or sounds, nothing! As it happens, the car obviously wouldn't start back up and I got towed.
We have a neighbor who is "mechanically inclined" looked at my car and stated it was undoubtedly the cylinder heads - now I've spent WELL over 1G$ to have my boyfriend and a couple of friends replace this. As they finally got the whole motor back together, new fluids in and everything replaced brand new, the car will still not start. It sounds the same as the day it shut off and how it sounded when I tried to turn it over.
We're at a loss right now and looking up forums for this exact issue I find is nonexistent - we've tried everything it seems and I'd really appreciate some help!!
