Shuts off in the middle of driving & now eng. wont turn over

sounds like you have a over heating issue most cars no a days will kill power and shake like this.the computer is like a back up safety tokeep you from destroying the engine.because when you let it set for about 30 minutes or so you can resume driving normal till the temp gets in the red I assume then it will start shaking and big loss of power.have you cooling system checked out to make sure.hope this helps you out.

Check your fuses for fuel pump and then your fuel filter and air filter. If these don't work you may have a problem with the Choke staying on. Good luck I hope this helps.

Ive got the same car, here is two problems ive found that made it run rough 1. The ignition leads are a bad design and the metal clip that plugs into the end of the plug is very tight and quite often people just reef on the lead or rubber insulation on end of lead causing the lead to break off the end of metal clip on the end of it. Ive done it twice myself till i worked out that you need to grip onto the rubber insulation (the big rubber bit on end of lead) about half way along it with multi grips or something similar so you are actually pulling on the metal bit just above the plug and gently wriggle it off. My sister has same car too and all the leads were broken like this it was still running but like ****,new set of leads fixed it. 2. I had run my lanos very low on fuel a fair few times and it started to splutter and stall and was under powered for about a week so i changed the fuel filter ($15 AUS) and good as new. Hope this helps>

Change all the filters and sitting that long, I would check al the sensors. Take off the connections and spray them with WD 40. Check the feul line and the injectors. If it has a carburator, open the top of the carburator and clean out the jets. Make sure the float level is right. Good luck.

MAP sensor is usually screwed onto the firewall in the back of the engine compartment near the middle. It has a small vacuum hose coming out and going to the engine intake manifold. It also has a 3 wire electrical connector on it. Please let me know if you can't find it or if you have more questions. The part looks like this:

if it is a diesel it should be the boost controler

yes if the car is running fine.It is probably an emission problem.Take it to the shop to get codes read.Most do it for free.it only takes 10 minutes.this will tell you what is wrong.

check ignition fuse

the 2000 daewoo lanos 1.6L dohc head torque is as follows , step 1 = 18 ft. lbs. , step 2 = 70 degrees , step 3 = 70 degrees , step 4 = 30 degrees . sequence is as pictured .



there ya go , gears to the left , looking at the front of engine .

have you changed the ignition wires? perhaps firing order crossed? if not coil pack or ignition wires faulty how do you know it is not "FIREING" on 1 & 4 have you tested it with a spark tester tool???
