Car stalls...why?
Hoping ill get some help on this
My car has been running pretty good so far, no problems. runs strong..etc. I was driving around today and my car just stalled on me 3times in about 15min. I was just driving around 30-45mph and when i would push in the clutch to slow down or just go in to neutral my car would just stall on me. Normally the car motor will catch and idle at about 1000rpms. I just change the plugs last week so i doubt that could have anything to do with it. i know there could be few things to cause this and most people on here are not mechanics but maybe somebody might know why. thanks guys |
clean your iacv see if that helps, also check your timing with a timing light.

would the timing randomly go bad or outa of spec?
also my idle is fine |
that happened to me with my old 94 ford escort, someone told me i might have had bad gas, the gas station might have had water in it, but i changed the air filter and it never happend again.

If it runs good when in gear driving and the only problem is that it won't idle, it's usually the IACV. They can get sticky so they work sometimes but not others.
