The "Check Engine" light came on and a few yards later, it died again. When I got it to start again, after about 40 minutes, I let it idle. The RPMs seemed normal and it ran OK, I guess, for about 15 minutes, then died.

I will not go into the odyssey of the tow truck but the car is now in the yard awaiting the wisdom of the ages to speak to this.... Is is the CPS? Is it possessed? I am so disheartened. Sigh.
I think your signature is missing some brackets.

Oh, and it's the CPS.
