Take your battery and alternator to autozone to have them checked out. That's where I'd start.

Re: Please Help!!!!!Car Problems

yea my 1986 z28 camaro did the same thing last year cause it sat for a year and then my uncle gave it to me. Come to find out from all the problem solving to find what was going wrong and it was some type of coil or something in the distributor do to currosion and took the stuff i needed out of a chevelle ss distributor. So from what i have read and what i have experenced is something wronge with ur igntion stuff from battery, alt, ing coil, distributor, or something in that range that will just make ur car just die or cut off, but if i am wrong then i and wronge never hurts to take something apart to see whats wrong with it.
