Need help. Engine keep dying on me

Hi everyone. I had this problem on my fit for about 6mos already. The engine keep dying (from a cold start, running and putting into neutral, engine will die) but when my engine gets warm, it stops acting up. I replaced one of my coils before for i had an engine check light but i remember this happened already before i had a check engine light on. Now its back. Tried cleaning the filters and the torque control but didnt work. Anyone have an idea? Please help. Thanks

Could be a faulty temperature sensor. W/ CEL lit you're going to need to pull codes to find problem.

Thanks for responding Krimson_Cardnal. But the problem is theres no check engine light. Its been acting up like that before then CEL came on replaced one of the faulty coils and CEL is off, went well for a good month then acting up again but this time without the CEL being on.

Silver, your a typing encyclopedia +rep to you. Good find.

I'll stand by the coolant sensor w/ no CEL lit.

Thanks KC and I try to help and learning a lot too. I agree with the coolant sensor and think that problem is one of the reason to other peoples issues too.
