something you might check, i had the similar thing happen a couple years ago with a Pontiac grand am that i had. turned out the the ignition control module was cracked, and the heat from the engine would shut the module down
We need to know the year, make, engine and model to help you.
When an engine is warming up the car may idle erratically. This happens because the air may be to cold and the colder air will cause abnormal combustions to ensure in the engine. The computer is set to make the engine function under certain conditions, such as having the engine operate at an optimal temperature.
The engine supplies the rotational force that ultimately makes the car go down the road.
Check engine light on? If so have it checked for codes. That should point you towards a possible misfire.
warming up
Several issues could cause a diesel engine to sputter and slow down, including a clogged fuel filter, air in the fuel system, water contamination in the fuel, or a malfunctioning fuel injector. These issues can disrupt the combustion process and lead to reduced engine performance. Regular maintenance and addressing potential fuel system problems can help prevent sputtering and maintain engine efficiency.
Global warming
yes we can stop glodal warming by walking and biking instead of using the car
I had one that did that and the problem was the electric fuel pump which is mounted in the gas tank. I mean I was driving down the expressway happy as can be one minute and the next second the engine died. No hiccupping, or sputtering, it just died.
Margaret Thatcher wanted to cut down on the coal as it was aiding the global warming.
It does not always mean that will happen, but it is certainly a common cause and if your car is sputtering and bogs down it would be one of the first things to check.
