All,
I have been enjoying my car but have a recurring issue. Starts great Runs fine for maybe 20 min Starts to once in a while act like it turned off for just a 1/2 sec then comes back on - causing the car to lurch and the shifter to jump After about 30 or 40 min the car dies if stopped and allowed to idle. It just drops off spools down to nothing, It restarts if you hold the gas peddle all the way down. Sometime when it restarts it is weak, then it goes fine. As long as the car is in gear and moving it does not die. It will continue to do this until I get home. If I am coordinated enough I can shift into neutral, work the brake with my left foot and keep the RPMs up a bit with my left and it seems fine (no stumbling or trying to die at higher RPMs) but if I come to a light, stop and let it idle it will just idle down to nothing. Sometimes when I get home it will idle fine until I turn it off. Other times it just dies. Seems to pull great all through the range Always restarts Any ideas where to start? Thanks Peter |
