wow..i was at a local 7/11 and my car wouldnt start....and wheni finally got it started i couldnt press the brakes cuz it would die out...so i got it home with the help of constant reving and e-brake... i went home and found out i was low on coolant...and when i put in coolant it was fine...but it still starts up dirty....i have to keep it in rev for 10 secs.....wut could be the probelm?

 

i guess check to see where the coolant leak is from but if you blew your headgasket and are eating up coolant then its maybe your engine is low on compression to idle the right way which could be causing you to die out constantly.

 

thnx

 

what chameleon said + could be having alternator/battery issues, because if the car isnt getting enough power the brake lights will drain the lil bit thats there... but if you were low on coolent its probably more likely a headgasket leak, but doesnt hurt to check every thing.
