You need to see what's missing after it dies , spark or fuel pressure . Don't guess ,test an if you don't know how ,take it to a qualified repair shop. Your fixated with vapor lock . Crank sensor , ignition module .
DTC P1599 will set if the PCM has detected an engine stall condition when:
• The engine is in run mode.
• The ignition voltage is present on circuit 439.
• The crankshaft position (CKP) pulses at the PCM are NOT detected.
DTC P1599 is a type D DTC.
The powertrain control module (PCM) has the ability to set a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) if the engine stalls when the ignition has not been turned OFF. This DTC may aid in intermittent diagnosis of a customer complaint of intermittent engine stall. The scan tool Failure Record information can be duplicated under the same stall conditions in an attempt to reproduce the occurrence. Since DTC P1599 is a type D DTC, the PCM will not command the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) or SERVICE telltale On. This DTC can set due to driver error. For example, a vehicle equipped with a manual transaxle in which the clutch was released too quickly causing the engine to stall, will set DTC P1599.
