Two days ago it did this and the next time i started it the engine lite was on. It was on for the rest of the day. By morning the lite had gone off. Today the car cut out on the freeway for a sec again. No engine lite has come on this time.
I know I need new plugs, wires, and a serpentine belt like no other. Could that cause this problem? I just changed the temp sensor and O2 sensor two months ago. And passed smog last month.
Please don't tell me this is yet ANOTHER electrical problem!
Whenever you have a problem like this it is best to scan the car and post the codes listed in the scan so we have a plan of action.....Hard to diagnose a problem with limited info...
