Question
HI I HAVE A 97 CADILLAC CATERA THAT SHUTS OFF ON ME WHILE I'M DRIVING, WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?

Answer
This could be either electrical or fuel related.

1. Will it start right back up ?.

2. Check to see if you have spark at the spark plug wires when this occurs.

3. Spray some STARTING FLUID in the air cleaner and see if it tries to start when this occurs.


Let me know.
