Have your engine checked to see if the timing chain let loose. If the timing chain broke at speed you would have symptoms similar to what you are describing and the vehicle would not start again until that was replaced.

Maintenance & Repair
I have a Saturn 1992 SL Sedan with 164,000 miles. I am having a major problem with the car cutting off while I am driving at a fairly constant speed or when I am idling at a stop light. The engine will shut off, along with the power steering and all other electronics. This happens when at a stop light only after I press on the gas to accelerate from a dead stop, but I am able to put the car in neutral and start the car again (sometimes it takes a while to restart). We tried getting the electronic control module repaired, but this did not fix the problem. We checked the oil and it appears to be of the correct viscosity for the engine. We are at our ends as to what needs to be done to fix this dire problem. Thank you for your time! 8 Answers

Have a 1999 Saturn SL2 , it started stalling after warm when I stopped for red lights , would turn over but no start, push it out of traffic, wait 15 minuets or so and it would start up but stall out again while moving within a few blocks. Would it stand for an hour or so , it would start back up and run until it was warmed up again, 10 miles or so and the stall again while stopped.Is it the fuel pump or what. also, the RPM would go up and down on its own while stopped or driving !! 1 Answer

Stalls when warm, RPM goes up and down on its own when stopped or moving when hot or cold.After stalling would have to wait to cool down to start again. Fuel Pump, or what ??
