    So many problems with car

    I've changed the main relay,ECU,dizzy and taken out the alarm system and unplugged the power to the amp in the back that wasnt being used anyway.

    I'm still getting major problems with my car tho.

    Stalls,sputters,dies at any speed for no reason. Sometimes it will start back up after a couple trys but sometimes it blows the ECU fuse. Now as of last week the speedo will work and then just stop and go to 0 then bounce back to what speed im driving at.

    Someone told me it could be the ALT but im not to sure..shit maybe a mouse got up in there..but i doubt it.

    Has anyone ever had problems like this before??? It's driving me crazy because i have no clue what it could be and the car is so pretty but i cant drive too far cause im scared it will break down or someting..wtf heeeellpppp

    Back in 2008, I had ECU/Tach/Speedo/injector problems and swapped main relay and ignition coil before realizing it was a loose ground bolt.

    I say check yours out.

        is your check engine light on? I doubt it's your alt. Was the car sitting for a long time before this happened or did it just happen one day? If the ECU fuse blows I would guess you might have a short in the ECU and maybe need to replace it.

          The check engine light does come on sometimes. the car does sit in a garage all winter and i drive it roughly 2 days out of the week, sometimes less during the summer. I have replaced the ECU with the lude one and it still did it so i switched back to stock.

            my sleedo did the same thing when i was first getting my car on the road

            i couldnt start my car because i had a bad battery now i dont know if this helps or not but you could (and i stress the could) have a bad battery and ifiy alt

            i know when the battery is dead or acts stupid my gauges go crazy

            now it could be this or it could be that but i dont know what tell you about your ECU excpt yo might have a short some were

            and check all of your grounds

            thats all i can think of

              ok so today i was taking it back to the garage to check it out and it went into complete meltdown mode..lol.

              Now the tube seals i just replaced 2 months ago are fucked again. the starter sounds like it could be shot and the dizzy i think also.

              Limped it to the garage and parked it.

              F22 is getting pulled in 2 weeks and the H22 is going in over the winter. fuck it

                Dude ur problem def. sounded like the ALT. " the speedo will work and then just stop and go to 0 then bounce back to what speed im driving at" Def. sign of bad ALT. simple way to check! crank the car. and disconect the batt,! If the car shuts off, ITs your ALT.
