OK, so about a week or so ago i posted a topic about how my car wouldnt start, and i figured out it was to do with my ground wires. Now, something odd is happening.
1. If i start my car, it warms up fine but eventually will just die, stall right out. 2. If i start my car and drive, it will drive a ways (random), then act as if i pulled a terminal off of my battery, it will just have no power AT all as if it is going to stall out, but since i am in gear and still driving it doesnt completely shut off, this will happen over and over again for about....10-15 seconds at a time and then stop. Normally happens once per trip, but its random sometimes..... Any ideas as to what could cause this, i just regrounded 2 grounds on the side near my battery (one big, one small), but i still have no clue what could make my car loose power like that, and only for an instant. I have a SAFC 2 and i dont see any dips in voltage...... This post has been edited by d3monc3lica: Feb 4, 2007 - 1:48 PM |

OK cool, now i have an idea of what it is even though my Haynes manual doesnt say anything about it. Its right on the firewall near the upper passenger side of my car. I'll investigate the vacuum line situation..... I wonder if maybe i got moisture in there somehow...... I just discovered a tear in my intake :-( Im ordering a new filter now, now any idea how to fix the moisture thing if that is the case?
