Start with the throttle body. I use brake clean and a toothbrush. Clean the plate and were it sits. Wouldn't hurt to spray down the MAF sensor, if it has one. Once you do it, it will take a few seconds to start. Once started, rev it up and spray inside the throttle. Keep it running. Most times this is a $4 fix.
ok and XL 7 but what engine options. gas, diesel, 2L , 2.5L? what? and most important , and never ever 1 time stated on this forum what country. leaping?
im not sure what you are saying. it runs ok cold, and as it warms , the engine. it stalls.? and what does same thing mean.? my guess, it starts fine then stalls; hot. but can you save the stall?
stalling is complex. can be many systems in the car. but can be broken down to : Ever did the 60k mile tune up,ever? if not why not. never skip 60k\'s or the motor will run like garbage.
1: lost electrical power. to EFI . 2: bad engine, in that when it gets hot , it loses compression. 3: lost park. 1 or more cylinders, 4 or 6 you never said. 4: bad injection. 1 or 6 of them, flooding or starving. 5: bad fuel. 6:EGR sticking , usually this happens just before a stop sign. 7: if the stall was a bog and the fast right foot saved the stall, easy the ISC is sticking closed.
First- lets change engine coolant sensor/ECT/ and you will be very surprised.Black head with four pins.Be very carefull when change it because there is pressure into coolant system.First-open slowly the cap of engine coolant tank.Then tighten again to safe coolant.Unplug the sensor,remove the pin and pull out the sensor.If the "O"ring/old one/ is still inside-take it out.
turn the lights on and off then try starting the car. some how it restarts the system and you can drive off. my car does the same thing and when i do that i can always start the car
