hey, im at work, my car wont start, i tried going on break. Engine cranked, wouldnt start. then after 5 tires… no cranking. just sounds like a smack coming from the engine area when i turn it.
i had symptoms of when its hot out, like today, car would start… then stall, and woul take 5 min for it to start back up.
also sometimes, when i start and drive…i lose power…like gas wont work, it feels to stall, then in 15 sec. goes on its marry way.
how long ago did you change your sprk plugs,wires,or fuel filter? you could have dirty injectors, or a dirty filter but it is realy hard to tell by what you said so far.
i think it may be your ignition coil. trouble starting… the heat… eventually just dying - main symptoms. you can check it with a voltmeter. you can even replace it yourself its pretty easy. i havent done it cuz i just had them do it after diagnosing it, but accodring to the haynes its just a few nuts. dont forget about the helmes scan online. try a search
new coil is 55 or so, might as well get an msd coil if its not much more
Main fuel relay solved that problem in my case. Just put it in today and it’s about 32 C out and it starts every time. Do a search for the main fuel relay to learn how to figure out whether it’s the relay or the igniter.
