Yup, another car problem. We all should have knew this was due for me soon.
Anyway I posted the below message at an auto form, and am trying to post it in many places to get some answers fast, because my job literally depends on me getting fast answers or things to try. So without further hesitation, my problem:
----------------------
What I have had done in the last two years: (Off the top of my head)
Fuel Pump (1 and a Half years ago).
Fuel Pressure Regulator (2 years ago)
Complete Tuneup (Last Winter)
Oxygen Sensor
Map Sensor
My Lumina has two problems. I am posting both because the second problem may be related to the first, or vice versa.
Basically my car starts fine on the first click of the key, most of the time.
Some days, it won't start all day for the entire day. When this happens you will hear the starter crank, but nothing comes of it. I can almost swear (and am pretty certain) that I hear exhaust coming out in small stutters, but it never actually starts. The next day, it will start fine. My car usually picks one day out of the week not to start at all, and the next day, without touching anything under the hood, it will start fine. Recently, its been doing this three days out of the week, so whatever it is, it's getting worse.
The second problem is that the car idles rough, and it wants to stall, but 9 out of 10 times it doesn't stall. Once in a while it does, but not often. The car misses when it reaches speeds between 55mph and 70mph when accelerating, but doesn't miss when not accelerating.
