Car stalls out after 20 minutes.
What an ordeal! I had a lot of work done to my 03 Montero sport. Timing belt pulley, adjuster, fan clutch pulley, radiator, camshaft and crankshaft sensors,and an ecm. When vehicle was reassembled car would start, but would only run 20 minutes and shut down. My mechanic(ase certified) tested and tested, but couldn't find the issue. I had it towed to the dealer, and after 3 hours of labor at $135 per hour, i was told that the camshaft sensor was bad. Do not use aftermarket electronic parts for your car!!!!! Ordered part. $94. Towing it back to my mechanic, as the labor rate is only $40 per hour. Hopefully this will end my ordeal. Car out of service for 6 weeks now. The cheaper parts cost you big bucks when they fail.
