Default Solved intermittent stalling problem

My 1996 Town and Country minivan had a intermittent stalling problem.
Most of the time, it would stall about 10 minutes into a drive, and restart again about 5 minutes later. Once restarted it would not stall again ever for the rest of the drive (even all-day driving). There were rare exceptions--one time, it refused to start back at all, but it did restart the next morning. And no matter what, it would never stall for the mechanic (of course).
And of course, no codes are being thrown. Otherwise, this would have been simple to solve, and it can never be simple.
Got some test equipment--figured out that I wasn't getting spark when it refused to start, so likely not a fuel problem (fuel pressure was always at spec).
Replaced the computer, couple of relays including auto-shutdown, and the cam sensor; didn't fix it.
What did fix it (at least it hasn't stalled since) was replacing the crank shaft sensor. Wish the computer would have mentioned something about not receiving anything from the crank shaft sensor. Oh well...
Anyway, just something to try if you're seeing the same thing.
