Can anyone tell me why a ignition module would keep burning itself up? Things I've done; check wiring and plugs, replace knock sensor, replaced computer, replace tps, replaced map sensor, check cap and rotor, replace plug wires, I also hooked up my snap on scaner and there are no codes. I can run engine in garage for (last time 2 hours) shuting off and restart anbout 10 time no problem! If I take it out with in 1 mile the engine stumbles and if I drive any longer it will quit all together and won't restart for a couple of hours. and if this is continued it won' restart untill I replace ingnition module! No one seems to know how about here?
