The other day after driving about 50 miles it died on me as I was pulling into a gas station(speed about 10 mph) and then it cranked right up. I assumed I had shifted gears incorrectly(5 speed). When I got out of the gas station it would not start. It would turn, start up and die immediately. Although sometimes it would only turn and not start. After about 5 to 10 minutes it started up and I tried making it home but it stalled out on me again going about 30 mph, and again and again. Eventually it cranked up and did not stall again, until today. It has been 3 days since the episode and I thought maybe I had bad gas or something, but just a few minutes ago I was installing a radio and went to go crank it and the same thing happened. It will start and immediately die or it will just keep turning and not crank up.
Does anyone know what this could be? I would be grateful for ANY help! Thank you very much. Oh yeah, the Check engine light is on but it has been on for a few weeks before it ever did anything like this, also according to the auto parts store it says that there is a problem with the catalyst flow. The guy said could be a vacuum leak, catalatyc converter or oxygen sensor. Could this be causing the not starting and stalling problem I'm having?
