Car Shuts off while driving, and won't start up again unless jumped.

While driving my 95 Buick Riviera Supercharger, the radio suddenly dies out, then the battery light comes on, and just as I pulled in front of my house the car cut off. I tried restarting the car but it doesn't start, all I hear is a clicking/ticking noise. The dashbord lights up, I have replaced the alternator, battery, and starter. If I jump the car it starts but after a few minutes or so of running, the car shut off again, PLEASE HELP

    After doing some research on the computer, it seems as though its my Ignition Control Module. I checked EHOW website and looked under "signs of a bad ignition control module" and based on the results, it describes everything I'm experiencing. Looks like I will need to replace my spark plugs and wires as well to prevent this from happening in the future. Hopefully this is a solution to my problem, will keep everyone posted

95 Buick Riviera Died on the highway. 95 buick riviera was making a clanking sound, then I felt a big **** and everything shut off now car won't start, or do anything. what does this problem sound

Your flywheel may have broke or the crank could have broke. If the crank broke the engine is done. Try to turn the engine over by hand. You can put a socket on the crank pully bolt and try to turn it.make sure the key is off and out of the ignition. Sorry for your loss.

Can i still drive a 95 buick riviera with a bad supercharger

if your supercharger sounds like tumbling rocks, it is the plastic coupler between the nose cone and the charger body; take off your serpentine belt; chances are the pulley has some play in it but it turns freely; the replacement coupler is a cheap fix; what gets a lil pricey is the labor to replace it... the buick has an alternator bracket that has to come off before you can take the nose off of the supercharger... dont forget to drain the oil from the nose cone with a spray bottle nozzle

'95 Buick Riviera, SuperCharger. Car won't Start up!

unplug the cam sensor behind the water pump pulley; see if it starts; if it does, shut off engine; replace both cam and crank sensors because crank sensors go out in these engines

The 96 park avenue will start great and run great. No security light comes on and everything runs smooth. No bucking or hesitation. A great ride. Then all of a sudden it will die. Lights stay on and radio...

It cannot be the VATS system. The TDM, that is the core of the VATS system, is engaged only at the time you start your car. I have a problem exactly like yours on my 95 LeSabre and just discovered it is the alternator that sometimes charges and sometimes doesn't and when it doesn't, the battery's voltage goes lower than a certain threshold and the computer (PCM) is unable to work anymore and shuts down the engine. Took me months to discover this!
