96 850 turbo stalls

Post by brady55 »

i start the car it will run and drive fine for a few min (warm or cold no difference) then it will start to choke like its running out of fuel and stalls. if i have the a.c on it will happen much faster. once it stalls i can restart and drive or idle for about the same amount of time. i changed the fuel filter but no change at this point. it does have a check engine light but i have not read the code yet. any help would be great i will post the code tomorrow afternoon or so.

I had a similar problem with my '95, turned out to be the fuel pump relay. Check the sites at the top of the page for a decent price, not like the rip-off's at parts stores. Also put that in be fore the MAF, I replaced mine too but it was not it. Let me know if that works
