Re: car feel likes it wants to die

any lights on the cluster? any leaks? does it like bog or shutter?


my Lt-1 did someting like that like a week ago..air pump needed to be bled.

Re: car feel likes it wants to die

how often does it do that?

the computer is shutting the injectors off when you press the clutch in until it hits idle, once it hits idle your injectors turn back on, sometimes if the engine isnt warmed up, etc it can act like it wants to doe

bog is when you hit the gas, and your car seems like it looses rpms or doesnt want/struggles to go faster

a shutter is when your car literally shakes like you have a misfire

can you describe what exactly happens?

when you press the clutch in, your injectors turn off like i said

sometimes if you press it in too fast, and the engine isnt "ready" for it it will dip a few hundred rpm below idle, shake for a second or two and go back to idiling again

this can happen in neutral and when you hit the gas and let off very quickly

have you tried using injector cleaner, or changing your fuel filter?

the likely cause is fuel related
