    The car will start up really nice it runs for about 5 min then stalls. I start it up again but then it runs for 1 min. I start it again and runs for 30 seconds. Then after that the battery is dead. I've already changed spark plugs, battery and I took the alternator out to get it tested and the alternator work fine. Not sure what to do from here please help.

    Any recent work,? Do you have a way to view hpfp pressure? The prv test may be in order, shady check the ground by the hpfp it needs to be clean and tight it's notorious for causing issues.

    Odd that the battery dies that quickly with a working alternator how's the serpentine belt look?
