Re: car wanting to die

I would start with my tune up products. Cap, rotor, plugs, wires and EGR. Get a good look at the injectors too. Fuel filter and fuel pump should be checked as well. Check all vacumn lines first before you spend any money. Cracked lines or missing vacumn plugs could be the cause as well.
