My engine stalls and won't restart
The crankshaft sensor is located behind the harmonic balancer. There is a special tool you can rent/loan from your local auto parts store in order to remove the harmonic balancer. Once it is off 2 bolt hold the crankshaft position sensor in place. Note there could be many other factors causing your engine to stall or not restart; but those crank sensors do tend to go out on those engines.

Check ecm for part number 1228253. If it has this number in it replace it with a 16198264. Gm had trouble with that ecm for a cutting off problem. Mine would stall driving down the road and when I would put it neutral it would start back up and not have any trouble for the rest of the day. You must set the tps with a volt meter or scan tool.

Do you have check engine light on???if so scan it OBD 2 yue$$ding isn't the way to go,if you don't have a check engine light on then perhaps coil pack!!! coils do run intermittent some times! and not trip the eng light on !!!!this would be a great place to start.Hope this helps

Im assuming this is the Series I 3800? If so, if you can email me I can send you some directions on the process. Its for a Series II 3800 but it should be similar. If you cant email me, post up and I'll see what I can do.

Has the fuel filter been chg. lately. If it has, maybe a fuel pressure test is in order. Fuel pump might be geeting weak and does not show up until it gets warmed up. Fuel pumps are a common problem on this type of cars.

It NEVER was the camshaft sensor! Unless, you've removed the engine lately, which I doubt.
RUN to Advance Auto Parts and buy a can of "SeaFoam" and add to your gas tank per instructions...drive at least 100 miles and the problem should go away...IF it doesn't you'll have to replace the O2 sensors in the exhaust system...Any good mechanic should be able to do this for much less $$ than the dealership DO NOT go to the dealer for repairs!
Good Luck
