You're spot on. But check your batterie's water and top up, as alot of people don't bother and this is what causes the battery to break down in one cell.Probably one of the cells is almost dry with very little water in it.So, top up water in battery and put on charge overnight, you still be able to save it.

92 buick century when i start it up the idol goes way high like its going to blow put in drive it jerks and eats alot of gas

more then likely it is the IAC thats bad. clean or replace the IAC. more causes are--- erratic idle (including high idle speeds) can be caused by a faulty throttle position sensor (TPS) - a common problem. and check for a bad vacuum hose also. good-day ! clean IAC first ! to see if this helps then go from there.

I have a 1993 dodge caravan v6 3.0 the other day i was driving it and wen i braked at a light the van jerked back and cut off. when ever you put it in drive it jerks back and cuts off. does anyone know...

it sounds like the lock uo solenoid to the torque convertor is hung on. Find some one who knows about transmissions to unhook the plug to the lock up solenoid and ur problem will be temporarily fixed or you can put a new lock up solenoid in it to fix it. But it will not hurt it un pluged it will even save on gas.

Hi i have a 1999 ford cougar and the speedo is faulty sumtimes it works n sometimes it dont wen it doesnt it idles irraticly and sumtimes cuts out wot could this be?

I think you may have a faulty vehicle speed sensor (VSS). It is located in the transmission behind the engine. It does control the speedometer and the computer uses the speed signal to adjust fuel. You would really need someone to attach a scan too and look at the vss readings to see if they are erratic.
