Information:
this car has around 160k on it and the reason why i am selling it is because i don't want to put any more money or time into this car. i have had it for ten years. the car runs but now will shut off at driving speeds. it's most likely the fuel pump, starter(even though the car will start and idle), or knock sensor.

I'm trying to figure this one out: you're drivning the car and then it dies, and you say the "starter" is most likely the problem? If you are driving, the engine is running. If the engine is running, the starter is working. The starter physically can't shut the engine off. Maybe on the fuel pump, when it dies put a fuel pressure guage on the fuel rail and if you have pressure, it's not the fuel pump. Knock sensor doubtful, it just pulls a few degrees of timing out if it detects knock. More than likely it's electrical, probably a short or bad ground.

 

the car seems to be starving for fuel over 25 miles an hour when accelerating like vapor lock, problem occurred after putting gas in the tank after the change in unleaded gas to have ethanol mix. i never replaced the fuel pump or the fuel sending unit attached to the pump. the fuel gauge in the car will flutter up and down as you take corners or accelerate. this car was the first V6 gm vehicle to have distributorless ignition, which means it has coil packs(three of them to be exact) connected to a distribution block running directly to the computer, later used on the cadillac northstar V8. and yes it could be a simple ground issue. i said its most likely but not have to be those potential problems. i have a new car and i have no need to hold on to this one. that is why i am selling it.
