i just bought a 1997 intrepid, and it keeps shutting off on me. while im driving it just quits and then i have to shift it to Neutral then start it again then keep going. it starts right back up easy too somtimes i have to wait before it will start. i thought it would have been the fuel filter. but on a 1998 grand prix i was working on had the same problem and it was the crank shaft sensor. i dont know much about intrepids yet. so lots of help would be apreciated. and where can i get me a set of lowering springs for my intrepid?

Any engine codes? It could be the fuel pump, but I would try the MAP sensoer first. Several have gone bad on my 97 (the after marlet fail just as bad as the OEM).

 

hey i have a 91 dodge pickup that used to do something simialer and it was a fialing fuel pump.. while most often fuel pumps go completly these dodges dont wana qiut. also a stratus that did the same thing agian it was the fuel pump.. try checking the actual pressure with a pressure gauge and let me kno

 

ok i finally got it to the point where it wouldnt start. i hooked up a spark plug testor, injector pulse light, and scanner. the results i got were. no spark, i got good pulse in the injectors, and the scanner said that theirs a sensor not getting enough voltage in the cooling system. code 0117 that may not be the code but i think thats it.
