Strange thing happened tonight...car stalled

Featured Replies

Earlier tonight when I left work coming home, my 91 Legie auto non-turbo did the strangest thing I've experience with it. Heard about it before, but never had one myself until this evening. While leaving the parking lot, my car stalled, more like it was choking, almost to the point of coming to a stop, lasting roughly 2-3 seconds, then it snapped out and I drove normally the rest of the way. This was from a cold start. I hope it's just a fluke and nothing serious. Any ideas where I should start checking if it does it more like this?

ECU coolant temp sensor is a popular guess in these situtations.

 

I would check all the electrical connectors in the egine room. Disconnect, spray with a good contact-cleaner, one that leaves zero residue, let dry, and connect again.

 

You might want to consider your fuel filter, when was it last replaced?
