a little confused the other day, a friend and i were goin to pick up his car from the shop. i was goin down the highway with the cruise set at 60. all the sudden, the car just goes dead. engine just shut off and wouldn't refire. i let it sit for a few minutes will waiting on the rollback, it fired for a second, then died again. so we go get my other car, go pick up his car, come back the next day, and i start the car. it idles really low and rough. i shut it off, and try again, now it's fine. runs strong and idles smooth. anyone have any idea what would cause this. dad mentioned seeing a puddle in front of the car, but it could have just been rain run off or something. thanks guys.

UPDATE. i was driving it around today and it died on me in the middle of a dangerous intersection, but i was able to get it fired back up. it sputtered a few times after that during the course of the day, but other than that, it's been fine. it keeps sounds more and more like a bad tank of gas. it just started doin this at the last fill up and i've never had any other problems with it prior to this. so i guess we'll see.
