1999 sputtering below 2500 rpms

Postby navman28 » Thu Jun 11, 2009 5:20 pm

Check engine light calls out IAT sensor. Get that part tomorrow. Replaced fuel filter. Vehicle sputters like it is not getting enough fuel below 2500 rpms then runs fine until rpms drop below 2500. Thinking maybe changing spark plugs due to fouled plugs. At normal idle, the rpms bounce from 500-1000. Once in gear, it dies unless you keep your foot on the gas. Any one have any ideas or experience this issue?

you cannot rely on us to fix your vehicle for you. when you ask a question about a problem with your vehicle, the only people that will respond is those that have experienced the same problem. if no one has experienced that problem, how can we give you advice on what to do? don't blame the forum for you being to cheap to take your vehicle to a mechanic.

I had the same prob in my 2000. Replaced the distributor. Plugs too for good measure as they make really good NGK plugs. Bunch of crud inside the dist.
