doing it again. the damn thing dies every now and then, usually when accelerating from a stop. It only does every now and then which makes it hard to find the problem. I was told by my mechanic that a cod scanner would not do anything because at no point has the CEL come on. He seems to think it is electrical, almost liuke a relay switch or something but I dont know how to start looking. Once it dies, it either starts back up immediately, or starts after you wait about 2 minutes. It dies twice todayt when I was making U turns at uofl. I am about ready to put the damn thing up for sale. I drove a 98 SVT yesterday (nice) but dont knw if I want another first model year car since the one I have has given me all types of ****.
things I have fixed on my car sine purchased 8-00
Transmission went out at 64K 2600$
Intake manifold leaking vacuum pressure 500$
battery cables failed/tow (cluster ****)300$
Failed emmisions testing, new O2 sensor, and cat converter/labor 500$
New timing belt, pulley kit, drive belt/tensioner/tow 4 days labor @50$/hr 900$
Now this ??????? what may this cost?
With the money I have in this thing getting it fixed, not to mention all the stuff I have put on it, (mods) I think I could be driving a really damn nice car right now.
Oh well thats life, no one said it was going to be easy.
Later guys.. Nathan
Keep those idea about how to fix this thing before I unload it coming.
