okay so today I was leaving the Parkside Mall. I just pulled onto Park Blvd, probably went up to 5 grand in first, went to shift to 2nd, and blam. I dont knwo what the hell happened. At first I thought I might have crank walk, but I have already went through that, and it wasnt the same. Basically, it was idling really rough, almost stalling, and the whole engine was shaking pretty violently. After I turned my idle up higher, it went back down again, but the engine was running. I figured i could limp it home. I pulled back out, went through first , then shifted to second, and that time there was nothing. no power or nothing. The car stalled and never started again. i thought for a second I might have run outta gas. No. No leaks of any kind either. Im thinking it might be something to do with the ignition control module. help me!!!

 

Happened to me about 3-4 weeks ago. It was my idle pully that slipped, or was slipping. Pm the brothers. I had to tow my car back home. Idle'ed real bad, when you start it about 5-sec later it just shuts off not restarting. Hope that helps. BTW Don't try to run it, tow it home.

 

possibly cas

 

wtf is an idle pulley?

 

do you mean IDLER pulley? if so that has to do with the timing belt and that wont screw anything up unless it falls off

 

i did have it towed home. BTW what is the cas? cornflake said it might possible be the cas. I'm thinking it might be the ignition control module or the ignition power transistor. Lemme know what you think.

 

cam angle sensor= cas

 

one of my buddies 240's did this and it end up being the MAF

 

I am thinking it has to do with something along this idea.... check for vacuum leaks and shit like that

 

start with the cheapest fix and move ur way up ive delt with it all on my eclipse took 4 months to get mine running perfect good luck
