I recently noticed my car cutting out, I mean it would just shut down. I would pull off the road..let it cool...and it would crank. Ok...then I pulled out on a small 4lane road. It died the same way..just poof it shutsdown. I have had the fuel filter replaced by my mechanic, also a coil. His "computer brain" he would hook up and it said distributer. I just got thru replacing all that in 2004. He put a distributor on it and it ran really bad. Now the "check engine light is coming on & staying on. The funny thing is if I let the car get really warm it dosen't over heat but i can drive it all day. I want the check engine light to turn off, and should u help me with an solution I will pass it on to my mechanic. And in hope what I have paid
him $360.00 and the car still acts up. Please help.
I am available at the email I set up with you guys, or
please do what u can 2 help me...Ty, Chris Mercier
ps: I made a donation of $10.00 bucs all I can afford.

I need the code number from the mechanics scanner that is being stored in the cars computer.

Other than the check engine light what aare the current symptoms...not clear on what was happening versus what is happening.
