problem #1

Cavalier 4-cyl

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

Car stalls intermittently, usually when coming to a stop. This is either with the clutch engaged or with the transmission in neutral. The idle dips to about 500rpm, fluctuates, and either goes back up to 900rpm or stalls the car. Restarts are hard. The car has approximately 61,000 miles. It has happened frequently for the past six months. Some days it's fine, and others it stalls every time you come to a stop light.
