Throttle position sensor That would depend on what year and make of the car you have. If it's an older vehicle that's carbuerated, you simply adjust your idle screw on the side of the carbuerator (look for your throttle cable where it attaches to the carb) until it idles at the proper speed. It could be a dirty air cleaner or bad fuel filter. It could be a vacuum leak. It could be missing on several cylinders - does it shake as it tries to idle?
If the engine idles ok but dies when you press the gas pedal, check the operation of the choke and throttle baffles, that the fuel filter is not clogged, and that the fuel pump is operatong correctly. If everything checks out ok, then the problem is emmissions related (possible clogged catalyctic converter, muffler, etc).
YOU WILL DIE! have you check your IAC ??
vacuum leak.
i know this is fuel injection problem but where to start shop wants1200. to fix
Hey.Is it a 6 or v8? and have you checked it for any trouble codes?
Adjust your carb, otherwise, it's a problem with gas getting to the carb while accelerating.
Have vehicle scanned to determine problem and recover codes Could be a bad coolant temperature sensor
I have python tips and it idles off beat and sometimes dies.
The trans won't cause it to die. Try changing the fuel filter.
Defective alternator.
Yeah my 1991 Ford Tempo does the same thing it starts and idles no problem but if i stop at a gas station and leave it running and come back out to the car i put it in reverse or drive it dies every once in a while
If the engine idles and revs up okay in neutral, it is likely the torque converter clutch lock up solenoid.
