'98 Stalling at high speedsx047x 05-31-2004, 12:27 PM Whenever my mothers 1998 4 cylinder camry hits 70 or 80 on highway travel, the car stalls out and dies, from the sounds of it it starts up again fine and runs fine until that 70 or 80 MPH mark. She has had it to two mechanics who have no idea what is going on. Even hear of anything like this? Let me know if you need any more info. Thanks. mechy1barry 05-31-2004, 12:47 PM sounds like either the maf or map sensors,have you had it scanned for codes? x047x 05-31-2004, 12:52 PM Honestly, I'm not sure. I'll pass that info along, thanks. Daniel M.

Falling vacuum at the intake manifold would indicate increasing back pressure that could cause the engine to stall out and die, where at lower speeds, under light acceleration, could be OK Just a guess, but that's the first place I'd look. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
