Subject: [s-cars] Just cut out and died.
So, while driving over to meet my neighbor at a local watering hole last
night, the car cut out and died.
Well it is 13 years old.
I had installed the Apikol harness and injectors on sunday. As reported the
car ran better than ever on monday.
Tuesday it was running fine. I stopped to get about half a tank of gas,
went to the bank drive thru and while waiting the car suddenly died but it
did start right up again.
It made it to the office okay but it did feel like it would very briefly die
but then jump start itself again.
Prior to its death last night it had the same symptoms and then died
altogether. It cranks but will not start.
Let's play why'd the pig die.
Suspects:
New coil packs/ harness
Bad gas
Fuel pump
FPR
Ignition switch
Thoughts???
I haven't been and wont be able to check any of this since its too cold out
and the car is being AAA'd to the mechanic.
Bill~so fast as not to be running~m>>>
ECU fuse - is the effect... now find the cause. Any short of the coils pops it BTDT.
Tho doesn't explain why you got the briefly die bit before. Hmmm. Check it anyway.
Bet you were the life of the watering hole upon your delayed arrival (read: butt of all jokes). So basically, the normal. Welcome back from Thailand, btw - was too busy soliciting carwashboobyvids from you yest. to add such.
