It just so happens to be my Contour.

Well, I replaced the alternator. I also replaced the links between the stabilizer bar and the struts for both sides, and I also did my first brake job. Well, when I pulled it out to test drive it, it was misfiring one one cylinder. At the higher RPMs, it felt much smoother.

When taking off of one cylinder, the car would kinda hesitate when accelerating. It would move then the engine would stop, the go again, all of that occuring within a second.

Well, I went on, and the car suddenly stopped. It died. At the middle of an intersection. At the opposite side of the freeway onramp. Yes, when they say that cars break down at the worst possible places, it is true. It is VERY true.

Well, I tried starting it several times, and the engine turned on (still misfiring on one cyl), and after a few seconds, it would go down to only one cylinder firing, and then it'd quit.

Did I miss a step in my jaunt worth of repairs? I did everything to the letter.

This time, I really do need help.


Is my car for sale? PM me if you're in South FL.
