Engine stalls, then starts back up?

Hi Jon, if this just started since the gaskets were replaced, have you checked to make sure no vacuum hoses are damaged or disconnected?

Do me a favor. Take a look through this link and then check for leaks:

Let me know what you find.

Take care,

So, we didn't check for vacuum leaks, but the stalling is really very intermittent, meaning not every other minute. Additionally, I spoke with a master "sonic" wrench, and he thinks there might be a tear in one or more of the coil pack sleeves which when hot or "bumped" would open and cause a short which in turn would cause the stall.

Anyway, tomorrow we will start diagnosing and looking for the problem.

Thanks,

Jon

Hi Jon,

Thanks for the update. Let me know what you find or if there is anything I can do to help.

Take care,

So, here's an update- pulled the coil pack and, to my surprise, two of the packs had broken rubber/plastic sleeves, and it appeared they were broken inside! Bought a new pack and the car is running great.

Thanks for your interest and input,

Jon

Jon,

That's great news. I'm glad to know you found the issue. Also, your solution will likely help others.

Take care of yourself and feel free to come back anytime in the future.

Joe
