I have a Mercury Tracer sub compact station wagon & has a standard 1.6 L eng with a standard auto tranny. (118000 Mile on eng.)
The only major repair work being a radiator replacement.And has allways ran perfect.
When i first crank up it runs very smooth, with no problems.
After driven approx 10 miles the car has a off & on stalling spilt second problem.
At times the check engine light will come on & go back off when i am at a slow speed.
One time i was going up a bridge incline & it went off. But after a mile it came back on. At the stop light it went back off again.
Most times over 50 mph eng light will come off. When i stop & shut off & recrank eng it will stay off till driven a t least a mile?
This happens at speeds in between 10 & 50mph.
But not every time.
And when you get over 50 mph, no stalling & runs like a new car. Most times the check eng light will come on & stay on past 55 mph.
BUT every time i stop & check under the hood every thing is fine & checks out OK ?
The eng oil is leval & clean / Radiator & Water levals OK / Tanny oil levals OK / Every thing visable & need to check i have.(I Think so any way ?) are ok?
Today i put a 10oz bottle of fuel injector cleaner w/water cleaner & put 10 gal preminm gas in tank.
Tomorrow i plan on checking the air cleaner out ? And all Vacum lines ?
Any ideas what my problem may be ? WOE IS ME.................
SO, my main problem still is the stalling ??????????
Thank You,
