hey guys i recently ran into some trouble with the celi. After driving one day my car cut out, tried cranking again, after two or three tries it eventully fired up again. I drove a little longer and it died again! once i got it home i had rough ilding and sputtering. Btw during all this there is no loss of power to the engine so we can rule out any battery problems.
Things i have done: Fuel injector cleaner Vavoline Water Remover. any ideas.... After adding the water remover the car drove fine for an hour, then i let sit and hasnt fired up since.....? I hope its just the fuel filter. This post has been edited by celica47: Aug 6, 2007 - 12:37 AM -------------------- I'am Reinventing the SLow Lane.....

Engine Oil? Too much oil can cause those symptoms. Just a quick guess. Also check the distributor and valves psi.

Yeah, are you getting spark to all cylinders? Check that.

Eh nah i doubt its the engine oil. Question, if my car wasnt firing on all cylinders why would it crank sometimes and drive for awhile?
