Description of the problem | Traveling 55mph on a main road in nc (rte 13). With no warning my engine loses all power. Car is still on, but i cannot accelerate. I have to pull over on the side of the road. When i come to a stop the car is bucking. I have to turn the car off, wait a minute then start it again to "correct" the bucking. The engine light and a light in shape of a wrench come on simultaneously. I drive a little bit further and the same thing happens. I use the same procedure five more times to get it to the auto shop, where i'm told i need a new throttle body. Mine is sticking open. 5,600 are on back order, so i have no idea how long it will take to get vehicle repaired. |
