Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Not more to add, but it idols fine for a while and than it will get sporatic and sound like it is going to die and than it will be fine. I turn a corner and it will die, or start up after stopping at a stop light it will die. It does start right back up. Took it to Chevy and they put it on the computer and they say nothing is wrong. Any suggestions
Thanks

There are so many reasons for it to be stalling. Not sure why a dealer would tell you nothing is wrong if the car is stalling. Check the fuel pump and fuel pump regulator. Maybe take it to a different Chevy dealer and ask them to take a look or take it back to the same one and tell them to get their act together and find out whats wrong with your car.

Hello I have a 2001 chevy cavalier and yesterday morning I tried to start my car and turned over the key and it did absolutely nothing. There was no clicking or winding noises only noise I heard was my fuel pump kicking on. All my lights are working normal and so is my radio. I tried jumping it just to make sure it wasn't an issue with my battery but it still wouldn't start. What could be the problem? 9 Answers
