Hi everyone,
I am having a problem where I drive my car around for a long time. I park my car, turn it off, and try to restart, it cranks and engine sounds like it starts up but dies. I wait for 10-25 minutes and starts up just fine, could this be an overheating issue?? I have had this problem for a while now.
FYI: I fixed one of the problems yesterday (changed out the tbs sensor) car idles good now. I’m able to put it in park without it dying. And the fault went away. I thank everyone that helped me out on here with that.

Could be a defective ICM. After you have driven your car for a while, the engine will heat up quite a bit after you shut off the engine since coolant will no longer be flowing. ICM's (especially the cheaper ones) are notorious for failing when they get too hot.
