Replaced crankshaft position sensor, still no go --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This has happened 3 times in 4 days. I got up to a stop light and when taking off, the car just died on me. All electricals remained on, lights, radio stay on. I just changed the oil and spark plugs and all is nice and tight. I have HP tuners and no DTC's and voltage is good. I mean it just shuts off. Tried cranking it and it feels like the fuel was cut off. Then about 10-15 minutes later I would crank it and it would start like nothing was wrong with it. I had to just let it come to a stop on its own. No brakes and no powersteering gets scary. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!! The car started this morning and I scanned it and p0336 came up. That made sense. Replaced the sensor and it still won't start.

probably would have thrown a code, but stranger **** has happened before 
I'd follow up on PSJ's post.
I'd also double check the plugs - just to make sure there are no cracks in them and everything is tight. It won't hurt anything to check and you might catch something that was previously overlooked.

Crank sensor wires run down by #4 and #6 header primaries, make sure you have not burned any of those wires.
