Wont go over 30 MPH!!!!!
was drivin yesterday and as soon as i try to accelerate over 30 the car bogs like its being starved for fuel. anyone ever had this problem? could i need a new fuel filter?
|
is it speed related or rpm related? WIll it not go over a certain rpm? Check to make sure the top of your spark plugs don't have any fluid on them.
|
when im sitting in neutral and rev its fine but it will die when the rpms start to drop. and when im driving and i accelerate slowly its fine, but it will chugg when i take my foot off the gas...and if im driving and try to quckly accelerate the car boggs down and the rpms drop and the car will sometimes totaly die and shut off.. any ideas?
|
check for codes
|
can i take it to a dealer to scan it? its not obd2 so my scanner wont work.
|
On the right side wheel well in the engine bay check to make sure the fuel pump relay is plugged in correctly.
It may also be any of many sensors, check the codes, check the TSRM on how to do check them. A dealer may check your codes for free but I guarantee they will try to get you to let them work on it. Good luck. |
daluxsrt4, get a Haynes book for less than $20, and i has the instructions to short two terminals on the diagnostic connector under the hood to blink the trouble codes on the check engine light.
FWIW, it sounds like it is starving for gas. This could be a bad filter, regulator, pump, or clogged injectors. Of course, it is hard to diagnose from a forum post. Good Luck! |
pulled the plugs tonight and changed em. the plugs were totally trashed. while pulling the second to first wires out the electrode pulled outta the wire. i left that wire unplugged and drove around and it did the same thing with it unplugged. gonna grab some new wires and see if it fixes it.

plugs didn't help. Still doesnt run like its suppost to. I'm working on the fuel pump and relay right now and ill let you know how that works out
|
so ive just discovered it a bitch to get to my fuel filter so im not gunna waste my time until i check the codes does n e one know what two terminals i short to get the check engine light to blink and give me the code?!?!?!? thanxx
