Thread: Engine shuts down

Vehicle idle for about 10 seconds then it shuts down. I have replaced the fuel pump, inline resistor and the idle control valve and it still shuts down after a few seconds. Can anyone advise?

Does it start back up after it shuts down? Do you have any codes?

No codes, it starts with no problems it only stays on for about 10 seconds. However, it will at times run for a day or two with no problems and then it starts acting up again. Oh hey thanking for trying to help.

No, No security lights. Hey do you think that a clogged exhuast cat converter could also be the problem?

Yeah your car needs to breathe

So I should replace the relay I quess. Thank you gentleman for your assistance this has been very helpfull.

well that is just the bypass, your fuel pump resistor is bad most likely

Ok, I bend the tab and the car works. However, I have already replaced the inline resistor once. You think I need to get another one or is there a wiring problem.
