Occasional stalls during slow sharp turns or reverse 2. Rough ride, with RPMs jumping all over the place 3. Codes for cylindar misfires 4. When I hit 70 mph exactly, car goes in to freewheel until it gets below around 67 mph This has been going on since Thanksgiving. I have had the following work done so far: 1. New crankshaft sensor 2. Throttle body clean 3. New spark plugs/coils 4. Engine reflash The ECM I got was only $100 bucks, so I figured I'd give it a try. The techs at all the places I have been to say that it isn't the ignition switch, but I will ask again when I go in tomorrow to get my ECM reprogrammed. |
