My 92 sl just died doing about 70 down the highway. Since then, the car will start up, drive about ten minutes, the oil gauge will shoot up to hot then the car dies. Sometimes it will start immediately, other times you have to let it set. Have taken it to 2 different mechanics. One said to replace the positive battery cable the other said it was the EGR valve. I have replaced the cable and cleaned the valve, but the car still drives for about ten minutes and then dies. Any ideas???

Thanks!!!!

"oil gauge will shoot up to hot"?

These have a oil temp gage?
 
im sorry, the oil pressure gauge shoots to "h"...

Not sure one that saturn but the "oil pressure sensor" doubles as the "fuel pump relay" on most modern cars. If there is no oil pressure the fuel pump wont run. Since it is spiking it might be shorting out internally. Thats all I have to go on right now from your discription.
 
thank you for the advice. it is very much appreciated.
