ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    We can't tell you. Because all we know is that it has juice in the battery. Tell us more, and we might be able to help.

    Common causes for a car shutting off while driving are:

    Ignition coil
    Igniter
    Bad grounds (less likely)
    Loose/dirty battery connections
    Bad gas
    Fuel pump


    There are probably a few more... but give a little more information so we can help. Otherwise... it's a waste of anyone's time to even try.

      little vague on the details yo. heres a dumb question, did you run out of gas? when you turn the key on, does the check engine light come on for a few seconds?

              Fuel pump or alternator?

              Rule out the alternator if the batterys good.
              I'd check the fuel pressure and go from there

                You should check the timing belt just to be on the safe side

                      Does the gas gauge go all the way to E? I've run out of gas in a Cavalier because the gauge was off.


                      Check the free fixes first. Make sure the battery cables are totally clean and tight. I've had my car shut off due to loose cables in the past. It wouldn't restart until I disconnected and reconnected the positive cable.

                        You ran out of gas in a cavalier because god punished you for driving a fucking cavalier.

                          Main relay or dizzy would be the most likely causes
                          There could be other causes too, but I'd check those first -

                          Do you have spark, fuel, compression, and is your static timing correct?

                          If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

                              My battery cable pops off on a regular basis and my car stays on, I don't think that could be the problem. The alternator keeps it running
