Thanks, hate to ask so many questions but im just checking off the list of what all could be wrong.

What's the symptoms of what's "wrong" with your car?

 

Runs fine at first, then it starts to cut the fuel as it heats up, longer i drive the worse it gets. But the temp doesnt go up past a quarter on the guage. Strangely last night it drove better than ever no fuel cut no hesitation for a lil over 30 minutes. Then out of no where it cut the fuel.

Shane...

 

Are you sure it's fuel cut?

 

whats fuel cut?

 

basically the rpms start to climb and then its like theres no fuel what so ever getting to the engine and the rpms just drop, feels like i ran out of gas accept more drastic. And sometimes it backfires when it happens. Any ideas what it could be?

Shane...

 

at which rpms?

 

thats the strange part...not the normal 3500 to 3800, the first time may start at around 4500, but the longer i drive the worse it gets, eventually to where it is doing it at 2500. But once i park it for a couple hours it doesnt start again untill the temp gauge reaches 1/4.

oh yeah the add coolant light randomly comes on...most of the time as im coming to a stop. While stopped i can tap the throttle and rev it to about 2k and when the rpms drop the light will go off for a few seconds. Sometimes it wont come on at all. I have checked the coolant, even flushed it and refilled it over the weekend. Could that be part of the problem?

Shane...

 

Btw, what kind of car do you drive?

 

1986 na 13b 5 speed

 

that's the same car I have......
Does it die?

 

if i drive it for a good while and then park and let it idle it will die. Got to wait about 5 minutes before it will crank back up. it's only happened once.

Shane...

 

your car is weird

sorry this post was no help

 

If it's only happened once, what's the big deal?

 

did you check your TPS, your timing, and make sure you have no vacuum leaks?
