Check the engine coolant temp sensor and the intake air temp sensor for proper function. If either of these two sensors is stuck at full hot, the computer will see this and not schedule enough fuel for running at actual temperatures that are less than full hot. So most of the time you'll run super lean and have no power. Lean stalls and hard starting--especially when cold--are other symptoms of this problem.

You have low compression in your engine. That is why you can't go over 25, it has no power. It could be spark plugs. Check the air filter and make sure it is not plugged. Fuel filter may be clogged also. Could be uneven compression presure from your cylinders. The camshaft lobes may be worn. Best bet, if your check engine light is on, you need to get it tested for a code at Autozone. This will give you a starting point.

2006 VW GOLF TURBO DIESEL 1.9 STARTS UP GOES 5 TO 9 MILES STALLS WAIT 5 MINUTES GO AGAIN AND STALLS

Hi. It would be useful to get a code read and some live data from a decent diagnostic tool. There are quite a few possible causes including, pressure in tank - if the fuel tank can't vent pressure then a vacuum will eventually form stopping fuel getting to the engine, this will cause it to loose power and stall. Then after a few mins the pressure will drop and the process start again, easy test is when the car stalls remove filler cap - if that's the fault there will be an audible hiss and the car will start up again.

part blocked exhaust will have same problems but will more generally cause a lack of power and acceleration.
are there other symptoms? i.e only when conering or only when pulling off or stopping, engine light on/off. Jon

2000 Cavalier Starts/runs fine for 20 mins. Stalls won't start again till cools

The shop needs to record the computer data on a road test
or look at the freeze frame data, when you go there

The fuel pump wasn't scoped or pressure tested

I think you need a different shop that's up to speed & knows
how to use scan tools & oscilloscopes

If it idles for hours you stop doing that & drive it for 20 miles or more

And you wonder why shops don't find any issues,they don't drive
the cars far or at all or take the test equipment along

My 1999 grand prix stalls and dies at stops.

My Pontiac Grand Prix is also a 99, it has 216,+ thousand miles on it, it runs great, idles good, I need to replace the oxygen sensor tho as it shuts off on me while driving or sometimes coming to a stop. You might try checking the fuel filter and pump as well.

This is an 89 Civic with 145K miles, autotrans. It started out as an acceleration problem hesitating a little but has gotten much worse. It idles OK but once it shifts into third gear it will start to...

Start first with the fuel filter since this is a cheap part that can be replaced easily. The symptoms that you are experiencing may be due to dirty fuel filter. If you encounter hard starting you may want to check the fuel pump if it still sending fuel consistently. Worse may be problems with the injectors.

4 cyl Engine starts and idles ok...give it throttle and it dies

I need to get a clear mental picture of what exactly is happening.

With this said, you stated that the car "runs fine" until warmed up.

Q: When you start the car when cold it idles fine?
Q: If you allow the car to idle until "fully" warmed does the car stall?
Q: As the car begins to warm up, Does the RPM fluctuate abnormally?
Q: Does the car Only stall when you press on the gas pedal or does it stall just sitting and idling in addition to pressing the gas pedal?
Q: If you can drive it while cold does the car stall during acceleration when warm or only at Stop Signs / Lights?
Q: If you wait 20min or so, can you start the car again?
Q: How many miles are on the car?

Check your fuel pump presure. Pump is in the tank. Also try and loosen the fuel cap, the tank vent may be stopped up.
