What causes a 1997 Pontiac sunfire gt with a 2.4 liter engine to stall when stopped at a light
I have a 1995 Pontiac Sunfire . The "check gages " light comes on when my gas tank is on empty. I dont know if this is a right answer but this is how I know I need to fill up at the gasbar .
Have vehicle scanned to determine the problem
Check the main fusebox under the hood.
Fill your coolant reservoir and the light should turn off. Do it soon or your engine may over heat.
disconnect the negative battery cable for 10 mins this will reset computer it will do it for sure
It means your engine needs attention.
try un hooking your battery for the night then re hook it back up
When the Check Engine Light (CEL) comes on, it means something wrong was detected, either with emissions or performance. When this happens, the computer will have a diagnostic code in memory that can be retrieved with an OBDII scanner. Auto Zone will scan and retrieve the diagnostic codes free of charge.
