she wont stay running

Talk about modifications, or anything else associated with performance enhancements. Have a new idea for performance/reliability? Post it here. No idea is stupid! (please use Detailing and Appearance for cosmetic ideas)

she wont stay running

Post by 99bonnie »

hi guys i need some help. started my car to go out this afternoon and as i was driving away after about 5 minutes the car completely died while i was moving. Started the car again and it will not stay running without giving it gas. I got the car home by 2 footing it and got it into my driveway and it stalled again. The car will stay running in park but once put into reverse or drive it bogs out without me pressing the gas. any ideas or related problems

thanks

Off the top of my head, it might be the fuel pump. I had a Grand Am that acted this way until it just didn't start. Also it might be a dirty MAF
