My car has a 1.8 FI that has, up to this week, always run great and idled perfectly. The problem has just started happening the last couple of days. If I drive the car more than a couple of miles, it starts idling bad and if it kills, it wont start back up. I read that my head temp sensor could be causing the starting issue, but could it also cause the bad idle? If not the CHT, what else could be wrong?
