mtumwa Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I've got a '94 SE V6 with 197,800 miles on it which ran like a top up until two days ago. I started it up as usual, drove for about two miles, shut it off for about five minutes. When I got back in it started fine, when I put it in D to take off once I went to accelerate, it would bog down as if it were choking on the gas. After lightly tapping the gas pedal and coaxing the revs up, I was able to drive off. After driving about a mile, it starts to spit and sputter and threatened to stall. It did not stall, however, I had one hell of a time trying to keep it from stalling when i gave it gas. Stopped in a parking lot and shut it off for about 10 minutes. It restarted fine, but still spitting and sputtering when I gave it gas. The next day, it did the same thing, started fine, spitting and sputtering when I gave it gas. After limping home, it would not fire over at all on the following day. Turns over fine, just won't fire up. I have not checked fuel pressure yet, but I'm reasonably sure that I have spark. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, what are some possible fixes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slick Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 i would suspect the fuel pump first, then possibly fuel filter. start there and see how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Ditto, could also be some sort of wacky problem with the MAF sensor coming undone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
