Background:
I rebuilt my engine due to rod knock, that took 10 months...
Rebuilt engine has 110 miles on it
I was getting long cranks over the last 36 hours.
I left for work and I did not make it to the first stop sign. Car was working fine then the motor shut off. I restarted the motor but it dies a few seconds after starting. I rolled my car backwards downhill to get it back to my house.
That was on Thursday. After I let it sit for 30 min my car started right up with no codes. After work I tired to take a test drive but the engine died twice before I got out of the driveway. Later on I was able to take another test drive in my neighborhood and it worked just fine. This evening I took another test drive out of my neighborhood and everything was fine.
I logged the test drives and I uploaded to logs here but I was not logged in when I did that. I will have to figure out how to post the logs here.
What could cause an engine to shutoff while driving with no codes?
ETA: Its been a few days since this happened. Car either starts and runs normal or I long crank and I have to hit the gas then runs normal. I posted logs at the bottom of the page.
