2001 Cavalier stalling problems
Monday, January 18, 2010 12:54 PM
Hello all, I have a 2001 2200 cavalier and recentely it has been stalling on me. It didn't matter if it has a full tank or empty. The car will stay running if i keep my foot on the gas. As soon as i release the gas, the car stalls.

I've replaced the fuel filter, tested and cleaned the idle intake air valve, throttle position sensor, coolant temp sensor, and the injectors. I've got it running and sprayed the intake manifold area with some wd-40 and no change.

I'm going bald trying to figure this out... my next guess is the MAP sensor.. any other thoughts?

I would look into the coilpacks / plugs / wires / Possible fuel pump PSI test done.

Tried a new MAP sensor, no luck. I crawled under the car and gave the catalytic convertor a shake... sounded like a box of smarties, i'm guessing this is my problem.
