Well, isn't that just a happy little question! An engine needs three things to run smoothly: fuel to provide energy, air for combustion, and a spark to ignite the fuel-air mixture. Just like painting a beautiful landscape, when these three elements come together in harmony, the engine can hum along like a peaceful little stream.

What can cause an engine on a ford to stall or not start?

Any gasoline powered vehicle needs 3 things to run 1. Spark at the right time 2. fuel 3. Air If any one of these three things are missing or are not going to the cylinder at the right time. The engine will not run. Modern cars have computers that control spark timing and fuel injection to the engine. The modern computer controlled vehicle has many sensors that tell the computer when to trigger spark and the fuel injectors. If any one of these sensors go out the vehicle will not run or will run poorly and possibly stall.

Why would a 1998 Acura RL stall when stopping?

The engine needs 3 things in order to run. They are fuel, air, & spark. If any one of these is missing the engine will stall. You may have a partially clogged fuel filter, the fuel pump may be failing, your spark plugs or wires may need replacing, or it can be any number of other things. Your check engine light should be on, and a scan with an OBD2 scanner will lift the code that has been set. This code will tell you what part is being effected and help you determine what is wrong.
