Asked by Moebdik Jan 22, 2018 at 10:32 PM about the 1995 Saturn S-Series 4 Dr SL2 Sedan

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I went and changed the coolant temperature
sensor cause o had to have the gas to the
floor to get it started. So with a new sensor
in place after the car warmed up the engine
started to act like it was missing at 35 mph
and the rpm's when stopped would want to
drop below 900 which would cause the car
to stall it don't do it all the time. I let it sit in
park and it wouldn't cut out at all nor would
the R's drop below 900. Should I change the
cps sensor. Ideas?

Sounds like it might be your throttle position sensor that might be suspect have you had a tune up lately could be your intakes all gummed up too?

I have a Saturn 1992 SL Sedan with 164,000 miles. I am having a major problem with the car cutting off while I am driving at a fairly constant speed or when I am idling at a stop light. The engine will shut off, along with the power steering and all other electronics. This happens when at a stop light only after I press on the gas to accelerate from a dead stop, but I am able to put the car in neutral and start the car again (sometimes it takes a while to restart). We tried getting the electronic control module repaired, but this did not fix the problem. We checked the oil and it appears to be of the correct viscosity for the engine. We are at our ends as to what needs to be done to fix this dire problem. Thank you for your time! 8 Answers

1992 Saturn SC2, 123k miles. The car was bought a few months ago, and has run fine for short trips, and an occasional joy ride. About 2 weeks ago, I though I got some slug gas, and have been putting HEET, that seemed to work. The car runs great, then has trouble staying lit, and seems to lose revs to either dying, or coming damn close. Only occurs after has already had "a good run", and been turned off for a bit. Only happens whith initial push on gas pedal, and when down shifting..automatic 1 Answer
