Engine dies out on heavy trottle

Works fine for up to half throttle, then cuts out like staving for gas when throttle is increased. Back off on the throttle and it runs fine again. with go 70mph as long as you don't go past half throttle. Works better on cold start, can almost get full throttle responce. Replaced throttle position sensor. Scan tool shows no codes.

SOURCE: 1997 dodge dakota v6 engine wont start replaced

turn the key to the on position a see if you can here a buzzing sound around the fuel tank,if you don't hear a sound then. (be very careful while doing this) with the key off take a fuel line coming from the tank loose,make sure its pointed away from you and turn the key to the on position,see if any gas comes out,if not then your fuel pump is probably bad.

yes, this is the case of a failed throttle body, in which case it needs replaced, the car is getting too much fuel causing the high idle. this needs replaced asap. you could proably find a small independant honda shop that could do the work for less.

it is possable/likely a bad ECTS (engine coolant tep. sensor), this can cause the injectors to allow to much fuel into cylinders and cause a low compression and or flooding situation, good luck, marty

88 isuzu 4x4 Truck 2.6L. Starts then dies in 2 sec on cold start.

I would try cleaning the throttle valve body and also the automatic idle speed control valve mounted to the throttle body, this is a common symptom of a dirty throttle valve and idle speed control valve. Use a product called "CRC" Throttle valve cleaner, run the engine and spray it into the air intake of the engine with the supply hose removed, hold the throttle up while you do this as it will try to stall, use up about half the can and then shut it down and disconnect the battery NEGATIVE cable for 5 min's to reset the system learned strategy, drive it for a few days and see if this corrects the problem.

My 95 Honda Civic starts fine and idles ok, but when I get ready to go the car almost dies out, then goes really slow like it is getting no gas. But after a few feet the car takes off like normal. what is...

This sounds like a bad TPS (trottle position sensor). When you step on the accelerator the TPS tells the computer you want to accelerate, and the computer then increases the fuel duration of the injectors. With out that signal the computer is getting additional info from the increased airflow into the engine, so it then increases the fuel to the engine, but you are getting a hesitation, due to the delay in the increase of fuel to the engine. Hope this helps and good luck :O)
