Engine Stall


Spoon

Recommended Posts

Y'know, I was reading this........I was thinking of asking you if it was and automatic. Does it shudder a bit when it stalls. I mean, does it just die as if someone reached over and turned the key off, or does it seem to be laboured a bit?

Someone on this board knows about this phenomenon. I was reading about it somewhere just recently...try a quick search. Obviously isn't Aaron... :D

 

Torque converter lockup solenoid.....A friend of mine had a Cavalier that did the same thing, Different power train of course....however similar design. Maybe have a look into it and see. I'm not for sure on it but it's a good guess. Stupid little solenoid was all it was.

 

I wish you luck... Let us know how it turs out....I'm curious bout this one!! :wink: :wink:

 

Yes its an auto, when it dies it revs up and down (400? - 1500? rpm) then just dies as if the key was shut off. I managed to get a snap-shot, I noticed the TCC is off the whole time. Unless mechanically its stuck?

I also noticed that the MAP sensor reading seems to be a little funny compared to the rest of the paramitars, but I'm not sure. I have a 3.1L that I was comparing it to. I've changed the MAP sensor twice.
