Stalling VN PLZ help

[porkkhunt]

hey guys I have a 91 vn wagon that up till a few weeks ago was running perfectly
when driving the car it will occasionally stall.. pull over and it starts again then off we go only to stall again a lil while later but some days its fine all day any suggestions???

[seabs]

umm well, the other day my sisters vn v6 was stalling. we took it to the mechanic and he said the valley gasket needed replacing, and also something else that i have forgotten sorry :P

when u stall can u start the car straight away and drive off or does it take a while b4 u get it going again? i had a similar problem just this week, i was stalling and then starting after a while. mechanic changed my Crank Angle Sensor which at the momnent has been working! (touch wood)

are u getting ne engine warning lights?? search the forum on how to do a diagnostic test on ur ecu and see if u get any error codes.

hope this helps!

Garth,

After stalling. Then re-starting, did you notice if your car had an irradic idle or not? (up and down rev)

[porkkhunt]

thanx for the suggestions
what does a crank angle sensor cost to be replaced anyway?

i just got my CAS replaced and it cost me $61 for the part and $60 for the labour!

You can buy them for $45 and replace yourself.

you can but its a hard job to do, and if you havent done it before i dont recommend doing it your self
