Q: Car does not start
Random stalling and then not cranking over fully. Replaced the fuel pump which did not change anything. My car will randomly stall and then not turn over for a while. Usually when i get it to turn on i have the throttle all the way down just trying to turn it over for who knows how long. Ill be driving and it will randomly stall not losing any power to the battery but the engine will die.
