VE stalling and stuttering
every now and then in the past week or so, the car would stall at idle when parked..
tonight it really hit; after sitting for a few hours i start up then stalls... start up again then stalls 2 minutes later. So i drive home and it keeps stuttering as i accelerate. As i stop for red lights it would stall or the rpms would flutter between 500 and 800 like it was about to die out
what i think it may be are clogged fuel injectors.. sat 11th i was on my way to work, already late when my fuel light just came on, so i figured id gas up after work.. of course i hit major traffic caused by people stopping to look at an overturned truck on the other side
so it obviously used up more gas and JUST as i pull into the parking lot, car shuts down as i coast into a spot
i did a quick search and found the injectors to be the problem for some people, i just want some more thoughts..i use chevron fuel cleaner after every oil change, 3k miles
wierd thing is, it stalled once before this ran-out-of-gas problem, but tonight it was bad
