Ok all. Heres a stumper. My wifes Kia minivan was running fine. No issueswhatsoever. well maintained...you get the drift. Last week, we came home from ...
Driving that long. Could be many things. Do have the codes read. History codes. First thoughts are, dirty throttle body and IAC motor, fuel pressure, and no air flow threw the engine. (converters)
Sounds like the same problem I have been having with my 2002 Sedona for the past 6 or 8 months. It would run OK for several days, weeks, or months, then just quit. If I let it set for 10 to 20 minutes, it would restart and run fine for at least the rest of that day. About 2 weeks ago, I was fortunate that it happened when someone was with me, so I was able to determine that it was not getting any spark. Since then the problem has gotten worse and more frequent - it was happening almost every day and would take over 1/2 an hour before it would start again. This morning was the last straw. I drove for about 4 miles and it quit. Took 1 hour and 10 minutes before it would restart. Drove another 2 miles and did it again. This time it took 1 hour 35 minutes before restart. After 1 more mile, it quit again. Took 2 hours, this time. Made it another mile and BAM! - did it again. My bro towed me home. I determined that it is most likely NOT the crankshaft position sensor, because 99% of the time they either work, or they don't. Very rarely does it cause in intermittant problem. The most likely suspect is the engine computer. That was always a likely culpret when I worked on GM cars. Today I installed a $50 junk yard engine control computer. I am crossing my fingers! I will know on Thursday, as I have a 50 mile trip to make. I will post again on Thursday, to let you all know.
Its probably a fuel problem i would start with the fuel filter thats the easiest part to rule out first. The best thing to do is hook up a fuel pressure gage to the check valve on your fuel rail to see if you are loseing fuel pressure. If you can not do that you can just start with the fuel filter see if that solves your problem.
Turn key to on position and listen for fuel pump to turn on, if not check fuel pump fuse and relay. May also be crankshaft sensor. Maybe not getting any spark.
