Re: Car Dies in Neutral!!! Please help
oil was very low...added 4 quarts and everything seemed fine....clicking went away...but after the car heated up it would turn on then die in neutral...i drove it around the block and it would die at every stop sign. now when i hit the gas (in neutral) it make a clicking sound...sound like from one of the pistons or something and it keeps on dying...any info would help...is my engine worth repairing?...and if not i am going to get a ZE...<P>aj
