2002 Cavalier dies while driving it and oil light comes on

I was driving down the highway doing 60 mph. My car suddenly died without a sound, no shuddering or surging of power. The oil light comes on after re-starting it and stays on unless I'm giving it more gas. It always restarts and sometimes will die again after putting it in gear, but not always. I recently put a new timing chain on it, but didn't have any problems until I put a new battery in it.

SOURCE: cavalier dies

you need to find the fuel pressure release around the fuel rail press the little tab when the car dies. If there is no fuel coming out from that point, your fuel pump is going.

SOURCE: while driving my car lost power and then died. wont re-start

Hey first thing you want to do is make sure its getting fuel .. Try shooting a little gas into the air cleaner and crank it and see if it starts .. if it does your fuel pump might be the problem .. or use a little either instead of gas either will let you know if its a fuel problem .. sounds like to me that might be what it is. holler if you need more and thanks Jerry

What could be causing my 02 Nissan Sentra to restrict revs then stall at highway speed?

Your first order of business is to check the oil level in the crankcase, and bring it up to full level. You can probably find a replacement dip stick, or go to a junkyard and get one. Without sufficient oil in the engine, The will seize. or prematurely die.
Is your check oil light coming on? Have the car scanned for trouble codes. Auto Zone and Advance Auto will a scan. Then you will be able to get info on the codes and what they identify. Just look the codes up on an internet search.

CAR DIED ON HIGHWAY 3 WEEKS AGO GOING 55 MPH .

A lot of things could cause it. The codes need to be pulled first. Most likely the MASS AIR FLOW METER is at fault, but without the codes it's just a guess.
