1992 Buick Century stalls

Please some one help me. My mother who is some 80 years old has a buick that just stops for no reason. 5 to 10 minutes later the car will start again and run fine.

its been to the dealership numerious times, and they currently have it. They are waiting it to have the same problem so that they can do the research.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, before she has a heart attack over this!!!

I can sympathize. I have a '95 LeSabre doing the same thing. I won't repeat the whole story here--check out my post in the LeSabre forum. Bottom line is, nobody knows what's wrong with it, so it's a grudge match between me and the car at this point. One of us will prevail. I've given up on "professional shops" on this for now. What's amazing is there seem to be a lot of stories like this--"it just quits." Yet nobody (the mechanics included) seems to have the answer. You'd think with the symptoms being relatively common, someone would be able to point to the solution. I'm almost two months and $400 into it, and I still have a car I can't trust. If it would only break and stay broken long enough to find the cause...

So go check out my post in the other forum, and let me know just how similar our symptoms are. Thanks!

check the crank sensor my 86 was giving to me because the car would stall and sit for anywhere between 10 minutes to 30 minutes my folks gave me the car and I changed the crank sensor and have not had the problem since

Forgot to mention that I did get my '95 LeSabre figured out. It was the crank sensor. As I said in post #2, go to the LeSabre forum and see the thread--it's very long, but the bottom line is "crank sensor."

Any new developments you can add on how "Mom's Buick" is doing by now?
