98 Civic cranks and runs fine. 4cyl. auto, 180k mi. Sometimes at a traffic light the rpm's will drop to about 300, it will shake a little and go dead. When it does-then it will not re-start. Sometimes when I stop somewhere and cut it off, then it may not re-start when I try to start it again. The engine will crank over fine , the motor just will not run.
If I leave it for a few hours, and come back to it-then it cranks and runs fine and will go for days or weeks before it does this again.
I replaced the plugs, wires, rotor, and dist. cap. The battery is good, and the starter is good. It seems as though it only does this after the engine has warmed up, never cold.
It runs great, just 3 or 4 times a month it will shut down and will not crank until it is left alone for a couple of hours-any ideas.
