I've had a problem with my car for the past month, and nothing we have had done seems to work.
The problem: - Very low, and rough idle. - Stalling. - The engine cuts out no matter if I am stopped at a redlight, or if I am accelerating. It can be fine one day, but terrible the next. If it cuts off, I can wait a few minutes and it comes back on. If I let it sit for 30+ minutes, it will work for the rest of the day and possibly the next. When it cuts off it's very random, and it forces me to not go to work, or I am late to work. I'm about to lose my job. Things I have had done: - I've had the injectors cleaned or something. - New fuel pump. - Replaced PVC Valve. - Replaced IAC Valve. Things it's not: - The battery, or connections. - The alternator, or connections. Now they're telling me the distributer. Any other ideas? Discuss. I totally put this in the wrong section, could one of the mods please move it? This post has been edited by Jen: Apr 28, 2007 - 4:31 PM -------------------- |

were is the car now??? what dealer ship did you take it to keth pirson???
my B/F said, if you have replaced all the parts in the list... he would say its most likely some thing with your timeing, meaning crank position sensor, cam position sensor... i would also replace fuel filter for extra mesure... but he is all most 100% + thats what it is if every thing eals has been checked/replaced.... he also said to check all the harness conectons under the hood and make sure thay are all clean and pluged in all the way... also check for any cut harness or wires as these things could cause the problem also... your going to need a sharp eye cause the other shops might have not noticed the problem because its in a tight spot and very hard to see... good luck... |
