2001 Chevy Cavalier stalling

Asked by Rick Apr 21, 2017 at 11:47 AM about the 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I was driving my car and It was fine until I turned the corner
and it acted like it didn't want to go. It acted like it didn't
want to accelerate . I managed to drive it a quarter of a mile
to my aunt's house where I parked it and it stalled out after
I pushed the throttle a lil. Then it started right back up and
was fine. I checked the fluids and everything was fine. I had
noticed it would stall a couple times over the last few
weeks when starting it. And the check engine light has
been on since I've had the car about 3 months. And the
prior owner said it was on for the 2 years they had it. Any
ideas?

sounds like fuel pump or related. If it stalls out around corners when your fuel level is low, may be a partially clogged fuel pump sock.
