simple diagnois

your water pump is right above a sensor called the CPS .. or crank postion 
sensor.

The weep hole of the water pump is directly above this sensor ... and when 
the water pump starts to fail ... it will weep coolant out of the hole 
directly on the dps sensor ...

After a while the sensor gets to hot and fails ... the EEC senses the 
failure and shuts down the motor immediatly.

After the CPS sensor cools down .. you than can restart the motor.


You need a new water pump and sensor .... i also recommend replacing the 
front main seal when down there and ONLY have someone who know there shit 
about SHO's
