I was driving doing about 65-70mph when all of a sudden I loss power. I have replaced the following parts so far, IAC valve, Throttle body, spark plugs and wires, checked compression its good, fuel pump, fuel filter and we end disconnected the cat converted and checked to see if that was clogged it wasn't. The check engine light isn't on either for us to check any codes. Do you have any ideas? The car will start but it doesn't have any power to move after running 3-5mins.

 

Not sure why your car isn't running right, but why did you replace the throttle body?

Could it be a short somewhere? Something with the electrical?

 

I replaced the throttle body because I had a mechanic tell me that the TP sensor was bad. That part can be removed so I had to replace the whole throttle body. However, this didn't fix the problem.

 

Sounds like it is electrical, but that is not a field I even pretend to know. Bump for you

 

wouldnt want to happen to me, so bump for you.

 

Any help for the n00b?

 

try changing the oil

 

Have you checked the timing? Maybe the motor skipped a tooth.

 

yea maybe except the powerloss would be there the minute he starts the car...not 5 mins after when he lets it get up to temp..and the car would still move...he says it doesnt want to move
