1996 Acura TL 6 cyl Automatic 147000 miles
I am trying to fiqure out, why my car dies when I am driving. It will just die and then I can usually get to fire back up by removing the key then it cranks right back up (most of the time) and then it might go 2 miles or 42 miles before it does it again. I had it towed to the repair shop and of course it cranked right up upon arrival. They cleaned some corrosion about 6" back on battery cables and cleaned throttle body and a sensor(can't remember which one) It drove fine for 2 days then died on the side of road. I left it there for 2 hours, when I went to go get it, It cranked up. I drove 1 mile to my house then it died pulling in my driveway.
