If it was a coil you would have a short missing a car a jerking sensation and it would be obvious and you would have a check engine light that you could decode that with. What it sounds like is either crank position sensor or possibly a weak fuel pump. But either one of those is going to have to be put on a scanner and viewed, you won't be able to figure that out by looking at any specific thing without scanning something.

Does the car hesitate when getting off the gas or does the car shake when driving? Is it slow to gain momentum if so then you need to check your spark plugs wires and if you don't have wires it will be coil pack coil pack is on the 3rd spark plug

I was going to say crank sensor, but you changed it. What have you done to it latley? Or did this just start? I kinda want to say PCM for some reason. Any welding done on the car latley?

Yes. First, in the fuse block under the hood check INJ A fuse and INJ B fuse. INJ A fuse is circuit 1039 which feeds the coil. If the fuse is OK, replace the coil electrical connector. I stock 2 of these at my dealership because they are needed quite often.
FYI P1351 is an ignition coil control circuit DTC.

My 2000 Bonneville did the exact same thing. It's the mass flow air sensor I'm almost 100% sure this is what your problem is.

Car starts and runs for about 13 to 20 minutes got new computer map mas still no go. wait for engine to cool off and will start. fan does not engage but sensors test ok. during diagnostics fan will run i ...

Just did one in my shop yesterday. MY problem was injectors shorting out drivers in PCM after half hour of cooling down it would restart and die again about 20mins later. You need to narrow down what is dropping out. Most likely your loosing injector pulse and/or spark. You can buy a noid light for injector testing and a inline spark tester which you can tag on igition coil pack from local parts store also you can tag into injector harness on passenger side of engine with noid light, when it stalls see if light is blinking while cranking on both testers. IF you have spark but no injector pulse you have one or more injectors shorting (acceptable range is 13 ohms) any lower than 13 ohms injectors are toast. IF no spark and no pulse your ignition module and or crank sensor are bad, replace both, module is under coil pack and sensor on side of block.

I also have a 2003 2.2L ecotec manual transmission.I have changed plugs,coil,map sincer,still have a misfire problem,i think somthing is wet inside but what that might be i don't know.Any suggestions

I worked on another fuel injected vehicle and found that it had an injector problem which had caused the check engine light to com on telling me that I had a random misfire.I did the same as you did and changed the knock sensor ,the crank position sensor and the cam position sensor only to find out that is was a distributor and injector problem.I would recommend that you test your cam and crank sensor and make sure that they are working properly And if the sensors are good then I would check my fuel system including the injectors to make sure there are no bad ones.

1999 chevy malibu, stalls, no restart after getting to running temperture. fuel ok, cranks but misfires when hot. cools down and starts. runs good cold. crank sensors ok

Sounds to be a bad ignition module or one of the coil packs. Will need a scan tool to know what cylinder (s) are misfiring in order to narrow it down.

While driving, the engine dies.

I had the same thing happen on a 91 Olds 88. Replaced crank shaft position sensor, coil, and ignition module. That solved the problem. I think the culprit was the CSP Sensor, but changed all three so can't say for sure.

My 2000 pontiac sufire dies while driving down the road. if i wait it will start up again. the longer i wait the farther i can go before it does it again. any solution to the problem?

Ignition coil or Ignition control module I would look towards the ignition control module.I had a 91 cavelier do the samething exact same and i tried everything to try and fix it,it turned out that it was the ignition control module. There will be 2 coils mounted onto that plate.It ran good till it warmed up,once warmed up it would stall and spitt and sputter,if left for awhile would start up and go good untill it warmed back up.Once the module would get warm it would quit working untill it cooled down
