'not sure but I had different stalling 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Ronjon on  Wed Jul 16 02:30 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I had stallings due to bad gas, (dirty fuel injector, now I use 93 octane from a good station) and due to sticky fuel pump relay or main system relay (two different relays).

The relay related stalling was during driving suddenly engine, break and steering power will go off (since, all tied to the accessories belt!).

'not sure about your problem.

I posted one about rough idle recently, you may try that:

Wires & distributor cap related rough idle: A coworker of mine told me that when you replace ignition wire set and the distributor cap/rotor, you should do it at the same time. His reason was that if these wires start leaking, it will generate higher voltage then there should be. As a result the rotor and the cap can go bad with in seconds (after installing with bad wires) and sometimes you cannot see any burn marks on the cap/rotor contacts. I am not sure how accurate this is.
