#136517, "What else?"


          

You fine folks have helped me in the past and I've pretty much replaced all electrical except fuel pump.

Long story short, the car has been bucking and now stalling.

I've replaced most sensors, fuel filter, ignition and now the ECU.

I replaced the ECU 3 days ago and it was running fine till yesterday. I was on the freeway doing about 65 and I felt the car buck. It did it 2 more times and it finally shut off. I pulled off to the shoulder and it would not start again. The engine turns over no problem but no spark/fuel and no CEL.

Called and got a tow truck to tow it back. 45 minutes probably went by and once we got it off the flatbed, it fired right up.

I'm at a loss.

Check to see if you have correct fuel pressure.

How many miles are on it? Burning a lot of oil?

Check the wires around the egr tube. Search egr wires on here and you will get an idea why.

Is your car a 95?

So I had a chance to at the wires around the EGR pipe and from the looks of it, everything seems to be okay. Nothing frayed or anything like that.

Please list all sensors that you replaced, and if the replacement was new. Also, was the tps one of the sensors?

Have you check all the fuses under the hood? When the car wont crank did you check for fuel and spark? Could you hear the fuel pump priming when turning the key on?
