Check the electronics,cam sensor or crank sensor these are the culprits.

you may be getting fuel but you are starving the cylinders from it. after sitting this long, i would replace the injectors because they will corode inside after 7 years. agood injector cleaner might work but they are probably too far gone. you might have sent a lot of corosion from the fuel tank the first time you ran it & that will add to total shut down of the fuel injectors. also check your oil pressure, or it may jump on timing due to stiff cam bearings. depending on klts, it would be good to use slightly heavier oil grade. you may also want to check your ignition coil for proper supply to plugs. bin there, dun that.

SOURCE: squealing noise stops when i push in clutch pedal

Sounds like a bad Throw Out Bearing.. Needless to say.. it has to be repaired.

Depending on mileage.. may as well replace the clutch/pressure plate.. and have he flywheel looked at.. change the tranny oil.. check the u joints.. rear end etc..

Best of luck!

It almost sounds to me like your EGR valve is full of carbon and not able to open properly so your engine is running rich.

What's likely happened is that your alternator has failed. When that happens the battery runs the vehicle 'till it has nothing left. When it sits for a time, chemical action in the battery gives you a small amount of extra voltage but not enough to me meaningful.
Re charge the battery and check the alternator output. Running it should be no less than 12.9 volts and no more than 14v. With all accessories on the voltage should remain steady and not drop over time. Also check that the belt tensioner is not weak and allowing the belt to slip. (alternator uses about 5 horsepower to turn and a loose belt will not allow that to happen without slipping)

Why does my car try to die when i drive down the road?

Try to check the ignition coil, when you driving it become hot then the car dies end won't start. After awhile when it's cold, then it will start. Replace the ignition coil.
I hope it solves the problem

2002 alero ran.shut off won't restart.Replaced fuel filter,now it gets gas,but still won't start.

For some reason aleros have this problem every once in awhile. It might be the security on the alero. What you would have to do is turn the key all the way to accel i believe right before you start it and let it sit for about 13 minutes. affter this the security will recognise itself and start your car

1999 Windstar drives fine for awhile then something starts to happen the abs light comes on the trak light comes on the lights won't go hi and low no backup lights the turn signal won't turn o

Just as a precaution, please check the brake fluid reservoir on that model. There is a sensor at the base of the master cylinder which can leak brake fluid over the wiring circuit, and cause the electrics to short out. In some extreme cases this has caused fires in some vehicles. This is why Ford had issued a recall to this particular model in the states at least.

Car will start after awhile it bogs down and dies

The engine in this car is controlled by a computer, whenever you have a stall like this the computer will record a fault code for the event, you must have the system scanned to get that code, then based on the code you start the diagnostic to repair the problem, which in your case is likely a CKP sensor. But that is just a guess, don't replace anything until the testing confirms it is the problem.

05 cts v6 drove car,when i stopped an let it sit for a few min.when i tried to start again the key turned on but would not start and key would not come out. the only way it will come out is by unhooking...

I dont remember the name for it.VATS I think it's called,it a security item inside your steering wheel the little wire breaks and the system looses it's sense to know what's going on.The car thinks you are in drive mode.
