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 |

I figured out the problem, I turned the cone on my air filter over and it had a hole in it, once I replaced the filter with a new one the problem was fixed.

That was not the problem. That is just a band-aid to actually fixing it. -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy
