Fireviper0242 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Driving home from work and the car just died. Motor starts but sputters and dies again with any bit of throttle. Like it's not getting fuel or spark to all cylinders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brighton96 Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 (edited) Dumb question, is it out of gas or low enough that it could have pulled air into the fuel system? You can try pulling the fuel filter off the strut tower and empty it into a water bottle to see what condition the fuel is in, look for water, dirt, yellow/old fuel etc. Also while the filter is off, put the water bottle on the inlet line and turn the key to the position before starting, the fuel system SHOULD prime and dump some fuel into the bottle, if not, pump is faulty or not getting power.

Fireviper0242 Posted January 7, 2022 Author Share Posted January 7, 2022 Replaced fuel filter. It turned out to be fuel pump. Pretty simple fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
