I have a 1998 Honda Accord, 4cyl, std trans, with 120,000 miles. My problem is, I have experienced on two occasions, the engine cutting out/quitting. On the first occasion (12/2/08), the engine quit at 65 mph, it would restart, run for a few seconds and quit again. It ran fine for another several miles, when the problem reoccurred. It acted like this several times, when finally it quit all together. After sitting 5-7 minutes, I was able to restart the engine, after which it ran fine for 3 weeks and about 2-300 miles. On 12/26/08, while driving at about 30 mph, I experienced the same cut-out problem. I as able to nurse the car home (approx. ¾ mile) but had to coast into my driveway. The engine would start, but immediately die. After allowing the car to sit for 5-6 hours, I tried to start it again and it ran normally as I turned it around and parked it in the garage. Any help would be greatly appreciated
