| My '97 Eagle Talon (turbo) starts just fine when it is cold, but when it is warm it will start, then sputter a little bit and die out. If you try and press the gas pedal to prevent it from dying out, sometimes it will work other times nothing will happen. I just took it to a mechanic and he replaced the fuel pump and the fuel filter. My car worked for a day, then it did the same thing again. Any ideas as to what oculd be causing the problem? Thanks! |

| A good set of diagnostics is in order. However, below are some items to look at. 1. Water in the fuel tank. 2. Spark plug "wires" and/or other high tension ignition parts. 3. Cam position sensor or flywheel position sensor. 4. MAP sensor 5. Throttle position sensor. 6. Idle air control |
