- vp v6 wagon
i recently bought a vp v6 wagon and was told the only thing it needed to run was a fuel pump and ignition switch. i replaced both of those and the car starts but, the first few times it starts, it will only run for about 30 seconds then stall. after that, it could run anywhere between 5mins - 30mins before stalling again. also, it will not rev. if i rev it up slowly it will go to about 1500rpm then die. if i rev it suddenly, it dies immediately. today, i discovered a severed wire from the computer (brown with white stripe) and was wondering if this is the problem or was it severed for the purpose of running lpg..? the lpg system is no longer in the car as the tank was out of date and it wouldn't run at all (only backfire) on gas. i tired to put the car into diagnostics mode and apparently the fan is meant to come one, then cut out, then the engine light will flash the codes. however, the fan comes on and just keeps running so, i never got any codes. as i've only ever really worked on v8s, i don't really know whats going on with this thing. any help on the subject will be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance
