If you just got it, call the owner back and see if he had the problem and if so, what does he know the cause is. If it is a lot of money to repair, you need to make a decision. And as suggested above, have the code checked. It may be a plugged fuel filter, injectors needing cleaning or something to do with the smog stuff. Don't sit on it, if you have to return the car, you may have only three days to do so.

The car shuts off completely when this happens. We have taken it to a few mechanics but have had no luck in solving the problem.

Hello. Any ideas on why a 1991 Chevy Camaro would stall while riding down the road? 1 Answer

Will start back a few times then die completely. If you let it sit for a while, it'll start back up as if nothing happened. Almost like it stalls when it gets warm. Any ideas?

I have a 88 camaro and I can't get fuel to the throttle body. I've changed fuel pump and filter. The car had been sitting for about 9 years but it was running when it was parked. Any ideas?? 3 Answers
