[Chicoloco]

My engine stalled yesterday in stop and go traffic. WHHY????

EGR Valve
Dirty Air Filter

did it stumble and die? crank back up?

[Kooldino]

vac leak? bad spark?

[Chicoloco]

Yeah it stumbled but didn't die. I pressed the gas and released it quickly ( i was in traffic) and then it stalled trying to idle again, bit it didn't die, almost.

TBH i haven't chanhed spark plugs and wires. Dunno if that can be it. I've heard misfiring coils.

ERG..

Is there an assosiated CEL?

If not, there will be soon.

Mine does that if the filter is dirty (Very)

It doesn't make sense but for some reason, it fixes.

[Chicoloco]

no cel (dark) When i said coils i meant i've heard of people saying coils misfire and cause this kind of problem.

Air filter, it makes sense, if you have a dirty filter, no air = no combustion = stall. But mines shouldnt that dirty. Worth checking tho.

I'll make a vac seafoam cleaning and try clean the egr with the how to here . I think I should replace spark plugs too >.<

Coils are +$100.00

i would almsot bet money on the EGR. mines does it 15% of the times. it sux. oh does the car accelerates by itself during these the stalling?

[Chicoloco]

eep. I hope it aint the coils. No it doesnt accelerate. It just happened once a few days ago. So i guess it shouldnt be serious. I bet doing what i mentioned before should help.
