Car won't start , i stalled out twice while driving, all the lights and radio work , what's wrong? I'm new to this

Kingtal0n · 09-30-2014, 11:03 PM

what engine?
how long have you owned it?

seriously need more info.

Just shut off, or stalled out slowly (seemed to want to die, but didnt die, ... and then it died).

You saying the lights work is a hint. If the electrical of the car is working fine, then your next simple explanation is related to the maf, or fuel pump

Ka24de 124k miles
Stalled out slowly
Maf?
When it stalled out the first time it died and then I turned it on right away and the second time it stalled out slowly after that I turned on once more and reversed to my garage and hasn't turned on

The car was sitting for about year

bad gas, or no gas. get some new fuel in there and change the fuel filter while you are at it.

You think?
Even though the car doesn't crank or anything?
And it says there's half a tank on the gauge ?

just throwing ideas out there from lacking info. does the starter even make an attempt to click? jump start the car? how's the battery? charge the battery up and clean the battery terminals. and also..check condition of oil.

No starter makes no noise
Battery is brand new

I had similar issues when it was time to replace my IACV..

mad-ass · 10-01-2014, 09:27 AM

car doesn't crank...check starter to see if it works. get it tested or jump the solenoid to see if it even works. or take it out and get it tested.

Idle Air Control Valve, it's on the passenger side of the engine, stupid close to the firewall. It's a pain in the ass to get off yourself, but doable. And it's way easier putting the new one on.

Here's a link that helped get me started:
