My car will start up and run for a good 10 to 20 minutes but then just shut off. After I waiting about another 10 to 20 minutes it will start up again. My lights still stay on when it dies so I am not...

Sounds like you are losing fuel pressure or the ignition module is shutting down when it gets hot. Check for spark when the car is in the no start condition. If spark is ok then install a fuel pressure tester and let car run. When it dies the pressure should be less than 15 psi. You may need a mechanic for this. Best possibility is that you will need a new fuel pump or ignition module.

Starting disabled

The problem is your Vats security system. This causes the car to either "not start" or "shut down" while running. (depending on the system) If the security light flashes, i guarantee that this is what the problem is. 1st trick, turn the key forward 2 clicks till right before it would normally start, leave like that for 10 minutes. ( no less ) After 10 minutes, turn key back then forward and your car might start. Cheap fix: ----- http://vats.likeabigdog.com/ Bypassing the key Never worry again fix: -------- http://newrockies.ca?ap_id=judd0081 With this fix, you can take that whole Vats, passlock, passkey **** system out of your car all together. Good info on both sites
