So i posted about a week ago.. but it happened again. It simply does not pay to replace the ignition module anymore.. it keeps on frying. What other possibilities could it be?

Starts up for about 2 seconds then dies.  Will not try to start again for 15 minutes.  Then repeats.  Has spark after dies & plugs fuel fouled.

I have a vibration in the front end of my 2000 ponitac

I have a 2004 Infiniti G35X. When the car is idleing it won’t blow heat. (it blows cold air) While you are driving it blows good heat. I had one mechanic tell me that the water pump propellers are worn down so at idle it doesn’t pump enough water. Could this be the problem?

Had a 92 ford mustang 2.3L changed engine to the 5.0. After the engine change I noticed that the check engine and air bag light is flashing. Has anyone had this problem, what may be the cause? I read somewhere that it could be a module. What could it be, looking for specifics without having to take my engine apart again. Thank You.

The ignition coils on the 2nd and 4th cylinder of a 2.2L 4I Ecotec engine are burning out, even with repeatedly replacing the ignition module. It has trouble starting up, and then when it does, the engine runs rough, very rough actually. It’ll only run a little over 25mph, and takes a little more than 5 seconds to shit out of 2nd gear (this is an automatic). What is wrong?

I have a 2001 Olds Bravada. Lately I have been having a problem with the brakes. There are NO leaks and it is full of fluid. The problem is that sometimes when I brake, and I mean easily, not slamming on them, there is a popping noise and the brake pedal pushes back into my foot and the vehicle doesn’t want to stop. I have to really press hard to get the brakes to work when this happens at all. It does have an ABS system but the light doesn’t come on when this happens. At other times the ABS light does come on but when it is on there is no problem.

I have had one person tell me this has to do with the vacuum hose to the gas tank being the problem. Another says this only happens with the brakes if I drive through water or hit ice, even though I have told them that no, there have been times that there has been no puddles or ice. Someone else said that it is the gears shifting, since it is all wheel drive, yet I have never known brakes to fail when gears shift. Another person said this was common in the Bravada, which sounds like bunk to me since it is obviously a safety issue.

Can someone PLEASE give me some insight into this and what might be going on? Thanks in advance.
