Your Chevrolet Cavalier 97 might stall when going downhill because it has a bad fuel filter. It could also be the spark plugs misfiring.
It could stall if you use the rear brake while going downhill. Is this the case?
Check for leaks in the intake manifold or a poor fuel pressure situation.
I had that issue with my Cavalier and it turned out to be a fuel pump problem. I would check with your local mechanic.
with me it was the o2 censer
Had a 1995 Cavalier with a similar problem. It was some type of solenoid on the transmission (automatic). Cost about $500 to replace at the dealer.
It needs a tune-up.
Oxygen sensor
There could be a couple causes . The first would be the oxygen censor isn't working properly and the other is the coil pack is probably going out.
it sounds like ur clutch went out in it.
Your timing could be off.
No, it will just stall and cease to run.
There are a couple of reasons a 1991 Chevrolet Caprice may stall out. The car may need a new distributor cap or the plugs may need changed. A mechanic will be able to determine the causes of the stalling car.
