My 98 poniac Sunfire turns on and idles fine, shuts off as soon as it gets gas
What is your question?
My car recently took a turn for the worst. My boyfriend had to reconnect a spark plug that came unconnected the other night. Spark plugs and wires are brand new maybe three months old. No when you turn it on, it idles fine, but dies as soon as you give it gas. Then you can start it up again, same thing.. someone said it maybe our idle control valve.. or the throutle positioning sensor.. any ideas please..?!
