ste91 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Possibly an air or fuel related problem? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 it sounds sensor related, one minuite it was running fine the next its running on three cylinders onto four.check to see if you have not accidently unplugged any sensors or see if any wires are frayedalso what about your o2 sensor,if thats as old as 2oo,ooo miles it should be on its last legs.
