Questionheya!
I bought the car 4 days ago and it ran like a top for two of
them(expensive days of motoring...)
It sort of fizzled out. i was merging onto the highway and it
just slowed down then cut off. 911 was no help until i was rear
ended and feigned an injury for them to come....
after changing the fuel filters and checking that the valvetrain
was running(peeked in the oil inlet while it was cranked) nothing
has happened!
Did a valve stick/burn? it isnt my ownly mode of transport,
but is to be as soon as i work out the kinks! any help would be
appreciared!
AnswerSounds like fuel starvation.
Look for a broken = leaking fuel line.
If you replaced both engine compartment fuel filters.
