Engine quits after 7 minutes
Hi guys, when I cold start my 91 ZR1 she runs for approximately 7 minutes(warm up time) then shuts down. After that she starts right up for 6 seconds and shuts down. When she completely cools down I can start the whole process all over again, any thoughts?

Re: Engine quits after 7 minutes
good chance its O2 related its moving from open loop to closed loop, when its under 160 or so degrees it runs off a pre determined startup program, when it warms up it moves to running off the 02 sensors, and if they or the wiring is bad it will go rich or lean ... killing the car. I would bet if the car starts to stall and you gun the motor it comes right back because its going back to open loop

Re: Engine quits after 7 minutes
Scan tool would help ID the problem

Re: Engine quits after 7 minutes
I'm not getting a check engine light and I'm not of a scan tool for OBD 1's. I do have a MaxiDAS DS808 reader with an OBD 1 adapter but still doesn't see anything.

Re: Engine quits after 7 minutes
I thought so also and replaced both fuel pumps and filter but still the same result.

Re: Engine quits after 7 minutes
Did you check the fuel pump relays as well?
