      I’m having issues keeping my 03 civic running. I’ve replaced the camshaft position, crankshaft position, fuel pump, spark plugs. My car will start runs for about 2 minutes then stalls out, sounds like it has a small miss. Needing help on figuring out what it is.

        Have you seen if it has any trouble codes? That will usually tell you what is causing things like this. I would start there. If not check timing or the coil packs which normally don’t go out but is a possibility.

            If the catalytic converter is clogged to the point where no air can pass through it, this would be the thing that is causing your car to stall. Another tip to help you when you do have your car running to help keep it in good running order is this video: https://youtu.be/5b3rrA6e7O4 It is about cleaning the egr ports on those cars. It is possible yours may not have them but it is something that contributes to catalytic converters getting clogged up. Also check the timing. rich conditions will cause catalytic issues as well as vaccum leaks. Don’t just fix the problem, make sure it doesn’t happen again.
