Just a reminder that fixed mine. The problem was the ICM/TFI Was getting too hot and the engine would die. My fix was to replace the Thermo Paste. I used ArticSilver5 (used on my GamingDeskTop)and the problem was solved. Take that stuff they give you at the auto store and throw it away and get the good stuff. Hope this helps.

Amazon.com will have it at your door in no time.
Or a retailer of you choice.
Some reason the link is way down belowthis.
