Consumer Description

FREEWAY DRIVING AND CAR STALLED. ABLE TO DRIVE TO CLOSE DEALERSHIP WITH PEDAL TO FLOOR AND GETTING ABOUT 8 MPH. REPLACED THROTTLE BODY. LEFT DEALERSHIP. DRIVING SIDE STREETS 2 MILES FROM DEALERSHIP AND SAME THING. 8 MPH. TOWED BACK TO DEALER. SAID IT MIGHT BE WIRE HARNESS $2000. THEY TEST DRIVE THOUGH AND NO PROBLEM AFTER MOVING WIRES AROUND.

THEY THINK IT'S PURGE VALVE NOW. GLAD I DIDN'T REPLACE WIRE HARNESS. THEY SAY IT ISN'T GIVING ANY CODES NOT SURE WHAT TO DO. SCARY TO LOSE ALL ACCELERATION ON FREEWAY!
