why hello there!!!!! its been a while guys ive disappeared...school is my new girlfriend. Without further ado...heres my problem. My car shut off on me about 2 months ago. i was at a red light and when i accelerated and when i got to 35mph it shut off completely. Like steering wheel locked and all that good stuff. So i had it checked out, wasnt the alternator. Ive done a computer scan twice at 2 different mechanics and no codes show up. It happened to me again 3 weeks ago but that time i was going 20mph. Mechanic says might be fuel pump but doesnt want to replace it if hes not sure its the pump cause thats an expensive piece. So what to do? Im scared every time i drive that itll shut down on the highway or something. Being scared in your own car isnt fun lol. The "symptoms" its having are that its relatively slower. Also the pedal seems harder to push as if the car weighs alot and is towing something. Kinda dances when idle too..kinda like kicks and the rpm's dance sometimes but not too dramatic id assume thats the car taking in air. Any suggestions would be great
