Rep Power: 0 Intermittent Dying Problem
1997 Civic DX, 5spd. Great running car, started dying on me a while back.
Sometimes it's a quick stutter, and continues to run. Then it progresses to dying where it's like it runs out of gas. Once it stops running, it will restart after waiting, sometimes 2-5 minutes, sometimes up to 30 minutes. (While in this non-running condition, it will not push start)
It did this more when the AC was used then when not. Finally, it quit after I replaced the radiator for seemingly unrelated issue.
Now, it's back. Is there an engine cut off thats related to the coolant system? only codes are O2 sensors
Thanks!!!

Not sure...
I did replace the distributor, as the ears had broken off (due to the sudden dying?). I only went to distributor because it died and wouldn't restart which was a departure from the norm.
Normally, it will always restart and run great... until next time, lol!
