Why does your car shake and turn off only when you come to a complete stop? |
[Edit] |
Answer
Check the air idle control (AIC) valve...It can be cleaned with a throttle body cleaner. Maybe the fuel filter. The shaking could be a motor mount.
Answer
Also bad fuel. Buy gas at a good station not the cheapest station. Put some fuel conditioner in the tank.
Answer
Torque converter (part of the transmission).. its a common problem. Get it checked out..
Answer
Ive worked with a mechanic that did this once. The car he drove would stall at complete stops sometimes. scan the computer for trouble codes. Check the MAF(Mass Air Flow) sensor. It is located on the throttle body, usually right after the air filter. Most of the time it is flat shaped and just screws into the throttle body. Unplug the electrical connector from it. Unscrew the sensor, clean the inside of the sensor with rubbing alcohol, get any dirt you see out. be careful no to break the little metal pieces inside. screw it back in place and reconnect the electric connector and give it a test drive. If that doesnt work, replace the sensor.
