Hi guys
My first post and happy to be here! My 3s-ge starts and runs fine, but it stalls every now and then. Always when it is warmed up. The revs just go right down and it either goes off or splutters a bit and recovers. Any ideas? Thanks. |

Never happens except when the car's temperature is at normal operating. Never happens when stepping on the gas, in fact if it happens and I get to the gas in time I can rev it and it stops from stalling. I can't repeat the stall myself, it mainly happens when slowing down or coming to a stop like when I'm parking, but sometimes it doesn't happen at all.
No mods, cept a bodykit and alloys. I recently had the following changed: engine oil oil filter air filter brakes and just recently: timing belt kit fanbelt gearbox oil the problem was there before the service but seems to be worse now. On an average 30 minute stop-start local drive, it stalls about 4 times. Mind you, I was driving it less till I had the timing belt changed. Thanks |
