| SATURN SL2 crazy Brake applied engine turns off, more info too | 21 Dec 2007 21:45 GMT | 5 |
I have spent days trying to fix this car. If I apply brake pedal the engine cuts off. If I remove the brake fuse the engine does not stall with the brake pedal applied. I changed the alternator last night and no better.

| Jeep stalls when giving gas | 19 Dec 2007 20:56 GMT | 7 |
My '90 Cherokee 4.0 has an annoying problem. It stalls if I stop briefly and then try to drive off. It runs great all other times, it's only in this particular situation it acts up. After it stalls, it starts right up and runs great. The same is true if I stop for a longer period ...

In the summer I replaced the splitting muffler on my 4cylinder Ranger with a Thrush Turbo. It was partially as a joke. I remember Turbos on V8 cars getting gradually louder over time, but on the 4 it seems to have hit a 'loudness limit' of some sort. At

I am searching for a remote start (w/wo keyless entry) for a leased 2007 Ford Escape and am becoming quite frustrated. First, I don't want any leds or switches drilled through the dashboard - that knocks out many choices. 2) I don't want to lose the functions
