Hello all. On my way home from work this evening, the cellie died.
I was just taking off after a light, and it started to feel like it was stalling in 1st when the gas about half down. It seems to have recovered and was going alright. Drove normal...til the next light. Did it agian, but worse. After stalling completely while going 35, pulled over. Had trouble starting up, but would start. Idle was crazy, but tapping the gas you could get it up to 4k rpm easy. That didn't last long either. It started to drop asoon as I hit the gas after that. Now it'll have a really rough start up, then run like crap for about 10 seconds, then just dies. I checked for any obvious leaks or anything of the sort..nothing. My limited knowledge of engines is a hinderence atm. I do know, you need air, fuel, spark. I have air, I have spark. So, my question is...do you guys think my fuel filter, pump, or injector is bad? The spark plugs are less then a year old, the only recent thing i've done is got a oil change, and put in LED BA-15 bulbs in my rear lights =P Any assistance would be greatly appreicated, as right now its sitting in a parking lot of a not so wonderful area. Hoping its something I can fix quickly and available at a local shop.. This post has been edited by rave2n: May 19, 2010 - 4:15 PM |

I found that information quite interesting, its very similiar to the issue i'm having....changing the timing belt this weekend, shall be fun. Anyone have any tips, like where I should support the engine from once I remove the side mount? I have a couple big jacks and i figured a 2x4 to distribute the weight to support the engine, just don't want to damage the oil pan. |
