Consumer Description

ENGINE STARTS RIGHT UP JUST FINE AND IT RUNS FINE UNTIL I GO TO MAKE A STOP THE ENGINE SHUTS DOWN. IT WILL START BACK UP BUT AS SOON AS I PUT IT IN DRIVE IT WILL SHUT DOWN. I CAN LET IT SIT FOR A WHILE AND IT WILL START TO MOVE AGAIN JUST FINE. SOMETIMES I CAN DRIVE IT A WEEK AND ITS FINE AND SOMETIMES IT WILL DO IT AT EVER STOP OR AT A SLOW YIELD. I CAN FEEL THAT ITS ABOUT TO CUT OFF AND I SHIFT IT TO NEUTRAL AND IT WON'T SHUT DOWN BUT WHEN I CHANGE IT TO DRIVE I HAVE TO GUN IT.
