Good Morning,

I'm having some problems with my car, yesterday I came to a stop sign and when I went to step on the gas and it sputtered and then quit on me, I almost couldnt get it started again. My car has a habit of when you step on the gas to up to 80km/h, to get to that speed my car sputters until I have reached the speed I want.

Also I had to get a new heater motor for the car and when I got it put on and my car back my windshield wipers wont turn on (the windshield wiper fluid comes out fine) but the wipers dont wipe, but when you turn them on u can see that the lights on the dash and stuff go dim. So its suckin juice from somewhere but not turning the acutal wipers on

Please help before I just drive this car into a tree get out and just walk from now on lol

Thanks so much for your time

Crystal !

Crystal,

Bring the car back to the mechanics that replaced the heater core. They had to remove the dash and when they re-installed the dash they must of pinched the wiper circuit.

With regards to your stalling. Whens the last time you had a tune-up done? It may just be in need of a tune-up.

As to the sputtering, you should get the spark plugs, wires, distributor and fuel filter checked.

Is the Check Engine Light showing while driving?

Check the wiper motor grounding wire, it could be loose.
