Q: Just replaced my fuel filter and pump after my car stalled and wouldn't start. Stalled right after gettin it. I have more detail
I first replaced my idle control valve since my car would stall out randomly. 2-3 days after I had my trac off light turn on after filling it up with gas. The next day not even 12 hours later it stalled for the first time since then. When I start it again it'll stall out. Just replaced my fuel filter and pump basically cost me a lot for the car worth and then not even 2 minutes after picking it up it stalls again as I'm idling at a light. The building closed as I walked out and can't wait til tomorrow. Just want some advice
