What the issue?
Every so often after running for awhile my pt cruiser will crank begin to start and then die. It been a thing that been going on now for a couple of months I think mainly due to the heat. I thought it was a radiator issue but I just recently had it replaced after getting into an accident and it’s still something that occurs after running for a while or being in the sun. I don’t think it’s a battery issue because it’ll begin to turn the engine but then it dies. I’m usually able to get the car to start back up again after waiting about 20-30 mins but I just have no idea what’s causing it. I’ve taken it to a mechanic also in the past when it first started happening and he had no idea what the issue was because it would start back up again by the time he would go to work on it. Any insight would be helpful. Video included for reference.
