Ok, now I've just about had it pouring more and more money into this car, but I cannot go without working and that is my work vehicle and I cannot afford to buy another one, much less repair this one. I have had to put a new computer, a new ignition modulator, and ignition coil into this car, and now the idle won't idle down when it's supposed to, cuts out when I try to turn sharply, as in doing a u-turn, or even sometimes turning onto the highway. So far all the mechanics I have taken it to have stated that there is nothing wrong with the fuel lines, so why does it rev up so high, or cut out while turning? It's a good car as far as it only cost me $100 to purchase, but didn't know it had this many problems. I can't afford to sink more into things that it may not be. Help!
