Electrical problem, more than likely. Battery not holding charge or alternator not charging battery.

SOURCE: car dies while driving and want start back sometimes

I would check the fuel pump or the fuel pump relay I am guessing if you let it sit for awhile it starts then one day stops again and over and over if that is the case definitely 1 or both of those things

SOURCE: car dies while driving

Hello
The engine in this cars drive train is fully electronically controlled by a computer called the PCM. Whenever a problem like this occurs the computer stores a record of the problem in the form of a fault code in its memory, to read these fault codes you must have the systems memory scanned with a special tool. Once the fault code(s) are read you then must perform the appropriate diagnostic testing to find and resolve the problem(s)

My 1989 chevy c1500 will try to start but will keep dying. after a while it will start back up and may die and may not. happens more and more often. sometimes just driving down the street. someone said...

My son was having a similar problem. Turned out to be the ignition control module located inside the distributor cap. You can take it out with a phillips screwdriver and have it checked at OReillys.
