i can drive my car about 2 miles then it looses power and dies the crank sensor had wires cut so replaced sensor , but still does it. it acts like it is running out of fuel when press the throttle it dies let it cool off for a minute and it cranks up with no problem. i thought it might be fuel filter cause it sat for a year with out being driven did not help so changed fuel pump still the same.

Hi, First Thing I'd Check Is The Fuel In The Tank. You Stated The car was Sitting For a year . Was the Tank Checked For Stale Gas And Water? Was Tank And Lines Cleaned out? Take A Gas sample. And Have The computer scanned For Codes. Write Them Down If any



Hope This Helps you,
Good Luck
