Car died randomly at a traffic light and would not start back up until about 30 min later. Car never died again for a few weeks but there was a noticeable issue where the car would sometimes not start the first time turning the key which persisted. Replacing the crankshaft position sensor fixed the problem completely. Cost about $8 off ebay.

Car starts sluggish, not sure why because the battery and alternator both test good. Starter has been ruled ok. But it does start, just not normally, in my opinion. Once car is driven, just to gas station, it will not start back up. It acts like it needs a jump but jump start attempts are unsuccessful. Once car has cooled down, set for an hour or so, it will then start back up. No clue what this could be... any suggestions???
