While this is true, I (and I believe several others) have had crank
sensors fail when the water pump was fine. My point is, even if it
appears that your pump is not leaking at all, the CPS is still most
likely bad.

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
