Frustrating Idle/Stall Problem
CAUTION: LONG POST!
Ok, so the 95 LX that we have started idling really low a couple weeks ago. If left at idle it would search up and down and gradually decrease. Eventually as the car warmed up it would drop so low that it would stall out.
At first, the car started back up just fine, but then it started to have some issues and would not start right back up. At first, it would just crank for a while before turning over. Then when that got a bit worse, we'd just have to push the gas a lil' bit and it'd start up. But this weekend it finally cut out, stalled, wouldn't start no matter what...ended up having to tow it home.
Now here's the kicker, when the car is running, it runs beautifully. Perfectly fine, no weird noises, no issues...but as soon as ya stop moving, everything goes to hell.
So far we have:
- Cleaned throttle body/iacv
- Ran fuel system cleaner
- Changed PCV
- Changed O2 sensor
- Changed air filter/fuel filter
- Changed brakes/rotors (not really related, but it did help the car from stalling for a little bit)
- checked plugs, they seemed fine, got new ones anyway but haven't put them in yet.
So yeah, that's pretty much where I'm at. This is getting really frustrating and confusing. No idea where to go next, probably going to pick up new cap/rotor and see if that helps any. ><
