Hey i just picked up a vt acclaim from a car yard for $5000 it has done 191000k,
its been up in the country with the previous owner and now i drive it in perth,
it was all fine then i got the air con regassed,
now when i drive with the air con on if i stop at a set of traffic lights or anything it will stall, so i thought i wouldnt drive with the aircon on and i went for about a 30 minute drive and turned off while i was driving?
i have had the computer reset, and a new crank angle sensor fitted, and i drove for 10 minutes and it turned off.
any ideas on what it is and or how to fix it?
Today my mechanic told me that he thinks its the fuel pump/filter which im getting replaced tomorrow if that doesnt fix it any ideas what to try next?
any help will be much appreciated.
regards Joel

please help...
crank angle sensor,fuel filter/pump, coils, leads, get a auto elec to check over all your wiring if all fails
hey,
idles at around 800
thanks
get the battery and alternator checked. if current is too low on idle the fuel pump may cut out. just a thought
Possibly a o2 sensor. They can often make the car stall if they are broken. Just take to holden or a mech and get them to check the error code.
