Question my 1995 bonneville-3.8-engine cuts off when i come to a stop and sometimes even when i am moveing. Iwas told that my CCT switch locted on the transmissiom was the problem or my safety neutral switch.can you help
Answer Hi Jaquell:
Well fist off I have no I idea what a CCT is? maybe TCC??? That is a torque converter clutch? That is odd in one of these cars to go bad and cause a stalling. If that were the case when it stalls it would stall and feel like a manual transmission car that you forget to depress the clutch in at a stop it would jerk and buck then stall.. If not I'd look at possably a fuel pump issue on this car or even a crank shaft position sensor. Both of those are common on thes cars. Good luck :}
