    Issue with engine shutting down while driving.

    Yes it does. Sounds like a Faulty PCM (ECU) There should be Some Engine Codes here --- with all the problems you describe. The Fuel Pump --- Should only Cycle ON for a FEW Seconds--- with the Key ON. Fuel Pump will NOT stay on until PCM sees a CPS signal. CHECK. For Engine Codes --- JB
