  • Tech advice on my legend

    Last friday we were driving the legend when it overheated and died, I check the fluids often and thought maybe a hose came off or something so we got it home and the coolant was low but not out enough to overheat it and i refilled it anyway and it ran fine with no overheating but since then I can start it and it will run and drive fine but whenever i stop the car the rpms will drop to nothing and the car will die, it will start back up fine and drive fine but when i stop it will die again the same way. Ive checked and no hoses are loose, its not overheating and i have no engine lights or anything on and all the fluids are clean and fine. Anyone know whats going on? I was thinking fuel pump but that would make it no run at all

    Maybe you just need to turn the idle up. How does it idle after startup or in park? My old eclipse used to randomly die like that and I turned the idle up. Never died afterwards and it only idled about 100rpm higher than usual after startup.
