Hello - for a "no spark condition", I would check for problem codes first, whether the Check Engine Light is on or not. Any saved codes, whether transient, or permanent, could be very helpful with this diagnosis. I would suspect,...
Hi Lisa. Thanks for writing in tonight. Generally speaking, the error codes you listed might be the reason for the stalling issues you're having. Both sensors monitor the engine and make adjustments to ignition timing, so that can cause hard...
It is possible that your alternator could be failing. When an alternator fails, it can cause other electroncis on the vehicle to malfunction. I would recommend starting by checking the charge output of the alternator using a digital multimeter. If...
The engine quit for a reason and I believe, from what you have stated, that a failed fuel pump caused the car to quit, unless there were other like overheating or engine noise before the stall. The engine in these...
The front air bags in your car are designed to provide important protection in the event of certain types of collision. Here’s what you need to know about them: Multiple Thresholds: Once, air bags only inflated. However, yours have...

Hi Kyle. I can't guarantee that you're good here. The oil pressure sensor gasket helps to maintain the seal when the engine reaches operating temperature and gets hot. When this happens, the metal between the sensor and the block tends...
To answer the question. Yes, your transmission is messing up. You will have to have the transmission shift solenoids checked to see what is the cause since the problem is not a common problem with this vehicle. A computer and...
