Question
i was wondering if you can help me out.... i got a 96 cavalier 2 door z-24 2.4 liter engine.... i think i got somethin wrong with the electrical system but not sure.... i would start my car and after 2 minutes it would shot off.... a couple of times my fan was still on after the key was out..... it almost seems as if im gettting to much fuel in the moter... but if theres anyway you can help that would be great.... thanks

Answer
Hi Justin.... fan being on after shut down is normal...fan can start and run when ever it is demanded by the sensor...car quiting after a few munites is another thing...have you checked for any codes...check fuel pump relay and see if it is shuting down...after it quits does it start right up again...check for fuel line blockadge..fuel filter and so on...check fuel pressure...if it doesn't restart right away check for spark as well....if no spark check ign module, coils etc.... not a lot of info from you so i hope this helps...merry christmas...
