The ICM will sometimes act like this Runs 10 minutes dies, wait thirty minutes runs 10 minutes dies and on and on. When it will not start does it have spark? If not then the ICM/ connections would be the first thing I would check. Good Luck and Follow up.

Ditto the above^^^.

Question, did you wash your engine before this happened? 94
If so, pull the spark plug leads and inspect them for moisture, if there is an indication of moisture, use compressed air to blow out the spark plug "tubes" and dry out the leads.

This happened to me, [94LS] after years of washing the engine regularly, the following day after doing so the same thing happened, driving along at 70 k/h the car sputtered, lost power then engine died, tried restarting, would start and then die, spent a few min. under the hood checking for something loose, [found nothing] tried starting again and it fired right up, a few more sputters/hesitations on the way back to my shop, to work on a friends G2, told him what had happened and he suggested I pull the spark plug leads and check for moisture, two of the tubes were 1/2 full of water the other two were wet, used air to blow them out and did so from then on after washing the engine.94

try the plug wires it may net be getting spark. What im saying is check them for chips or anny sort of missfault in the wire bc this happend to me and had to change the plug wires..after that it ran fine so check for anny chip or hole in the wire and eaven if its that small it still can lead to that problem..
