Ok guys,
back from a few weeks ago I still have no solution to my dead car. Rebuilt the alternator, no change. I had a guy that worked as a mechanic on electrical stuff specializing in alternators, he says the problem isn't there. I've messed with the major vacuum lines, replaced a few just in case, no change. Someone suggested it may be the CPS, and from what I've read on here that seems to be a logical possibility. The car starts up, runs just above 1000, drops to normal, then drops to 0 and dies obviously...All in about 5-10 seconds. For the most part, when the belt is off the car does not do this, or at least it takes a minute and that's seemingly more on the battery wearing down. Even though its only $30 I'd rather not replace the CPS and just go around changing sensors if there's no possibility it's the problem. Any suggestions would be helpful, I have the next few days open to try and fix it so.
Thanks again guys
