I have 96 non-turbo eclise that will shut off with no warning. It happens after the car has been driven for 10-15 miuntes. It will shut down at hihway speed or at idle. When it is running it runs fine. AFter it sits for 20-30- minutes it will restart. I would appreciate any help.
 
Possible battery not holding a charge? Alternator issue maybe? What happens when it shuts off? And stuttering before or CEL or other lights flashing?
 
The battery and alterantor were replaced about 6 months ago. I amde sure the battery was secure. It will shut down with the hod open so it would hard for anything to be touching. I don,'t understand why it will start after it sits 20-30 minutes. I check coil pack,ECU,fuel pump,can sensor. Could the EGR valve cause it.
