I was pulling into my driveway today and before I could pull in with the car idling it made a small backfire and then died. started right back up but again at idle it backfired and died. Does anyone have a clue as to what I should be looking for? 2000 RT/10 53,000 miles. 510-569-2611
A cheap code reader can be your freind, or take the car to an AutoZone type biz FREE.
Could be a MAP sensor
Could be an idle speed motor.....turn the A/C on and see if it will idle that way?
If you have an
OLD battery, it could actually be THAT, now that cooler wx is in !
