any ideas? in the past couple of days, i have replaced the crankshaft position sensor and the throttle position sensor.
my car had the problem of dying while driving. after i replaced the two sensors mentioned, i have not had that problem (yet).
today i took my car around my neighborhood, and it would drive fine, then i come to a stop sign/light and it'll drop in rpms then come up back to normal. drove it around some more, and its doing the same thing. i thought i was out of the woods and the computer had to relearn my driving style.
i came back home, turned off my car. about 5 minutes later, i started it up and drove to racetrac (not for gas) and my car died at stop lights/signs on the way there and back.
anyone with info or ideas?
