Default 96 EK dies at red lights

Being brief as possible:

Car used to die on me with no CEL.... Changed the dizzy car ran fine for couple of weeks

Now it dies on me randomly only at stops and theres a CEL now.
I dont have a scanner to plug it in untill i buy one on Tuesday.

I'm trying to figure out the problem while i wait to buy the scanner. Just wondering if anyone had this issue and if this is a common problem with one of the sensors.


I dont think its the map or tps or else the car would run. Injectors fuel everything all good. Idle is a good 750-800 rpm at start-up after warming up... just at stops it randomly dies.

Any help appreciated. Thank you for reading.

try looking at plug wires and push them down really good..

i just saw this thread on one of my other boards and the wires worked their way off the cap a little and causing the same thing.

You don't need a scanner
