1994 850, running problem

Post by **Fish stick88** » 27 Nov 2013, 21:41

Well... Unfortunately my car has taken a turn for the worst this cold winter...

Starting earlier last week I was experiencing some trouble idling.

A couple days ago it died while getting off the interstate right when I came to a stop at the stoplight.

Today, I was driving about 35 and it just died. No misfires, no anything. Just died.

A couple of things I am thinking could have happened.

1. Bad gas - The Cars, not mine

2. Rotors and wires

Anybody!?

Thanks
AJ

You need to start at the beginning ..good troubleshooting is not guessing.

When you turn the key to on, what happens?

When you crank the car, what happens?

Any codes? Does the CEL work?

CEL does not work but I have made it a habit to check for codes monthly. I get on a reoccuring basis - ABS FAULT - ABS SENSOR ERROR.

I've looked into the problem but the system still seems to be working fine.

When I start the car up, it does sound a little bit bogged down but that is not the issue.
Otherwise, like I said, no problems while driving until it suddenly stops.
