Re: car dies
i am having a few issues myslef , I bought the car a few days ago , its a 2001 zx2, well after I bought the car later that night a code popped up ( engine light ) so I go to get it checked also , i dont remeber the exact number but it was the system is to lean also- per bank 1 , so we ended up testing it further and it said there was a vaccum leak - by the way the only reason I even messed with the light was it was dying at stop ights and it also dies when i slow down.. only when i slow though, rpms could be at 3500 and then when I slow it just bottoms out and the thing is dead.. anyway so i changed the vacum theat goes to the pcv valve and leads around to the intake ... well when I came home the car dies like 4 different times when coming to a stop... i think a normal idle is what like a little over 1000 and mine doesnt idle there , i mean sometimes it does but most of the time not , so theres other issues also, wehn hitting high rpms this thing has a damn battery light that comes on and goes off several times in succesion ... so i changed the terminals where there was corriosion and guess what it still does it , changed that vacuum i mention , still dies , hmmm i also changed the plugs in it and pcv valve ... could this be that it needs an aternator , im sure it does even though it test fine , and could the dying be its a idle control module or maf sensor .. im sure it prolly a sensor issue but which one of the damn thigs lol ... i would appreciate if someone had any insite to this , also you can email me at catlettdale@yahoo i check that more often .. thanks
