Default My stock 94 Vette ,6-speed stops running after 5-10 minutes, starts fine..???

I recently purchase a 1994- 6 speed stock Corvette. It ran fine for the first month or so, now it starts fine, but won't run more than 5 to 10 minutes before shutting itself off? I recently changed the battery to see if that would help. I did find there's a short drain somewhere in the car. It worked out to be the headlight motor on the driver side. But there is still a drain that kills the battery if you don't start it every week......

That has nothing to do with the battery. Unless the alternator isn't charging. You need to scan for codes. Don't need a code reader. All you need is a paperclip. Google how to do that. Forgot, otherwise i'd tell you.

If no codes, do a fuel pressure test. Easy on these cars. Lift up the passemger side fuel rail cover. And schrader valve will be under the fuel rail.
