97 Sunfire - Starts runs for 2 sec, dies dreddly 12-22-2006, 05:03 PM
Hi, My 97 died last week after driving it pretty hard. I took it to the dealership and they wanted $850 for new IPC because they said it was triggering the anti-theft. I went and got a used IPC, disabled the anti-theft but the problem persists. The car will start, ignite, run for a second or two and die like the fuel is cutting out (like the anti-theft is activated). Any ideas?

That's probably what the dealer will charge you 800 bucks to do too. Related Links Enter the largest automotive community on the planet! |
