I have a 1988 dodge dynasty, it is a great car, but now it just dies out of no where! My nephew says it has to be the ignition control module but I not sure. It will start right up fine, goes down the road great, but just dies whenever it feels like it, it will start right back up the first few times it does it but the hotter the engine gets then I have to wait a while before it will start back up. Help what is wrong with my car? I can't afford to have it in the shop to get diagnosed. I can barely afford to repair it. I have replaced the fuel filter and the fuel pump and all the relays trying to figure it out?
What makes this problem better or worse?
Worse when the engine is hot
How long has your 1990 Dodge Dynasty had this problem?
RepairPal Certified shops can diagnose and repair your 1990 Dodge Dynasty. They provide transparent pricing with a minimum 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty on repairs and services.
Hello, the part that is always difficult is lack of resources to fix a car. Please realize this is a 24 year old vehicle. It was built during a period where diagnostics weren't as transparent as they are with vehicles a little newer. Therefore, it's all wild guessing unless you have a skilled tech have a look at the car and resolve the concern.
Fuel pressure should be checked at the fuel rail.
Ignition spark should be checked at the spark plugs when the problem is occurring actively. No spark = ignition system issue.
