when we start the car, it starts up at 1000 rpm and the car runs fine. but most of the time, and it starts at 500 rpm, when you try to push the gas it causes the car to die and it sounds like its like its starving for gas and it will just die. if i keep turning the car off and trying it again, after about 5 to 10 times it will work. but i need your help on what the problem is. thanks in advance.

 

help me out please haha, im desperate.

 

Check engine light on?

Does it really overheat or the Guage just says it is?

 

yeah the check engine light is on. sorry it doesnt overheat, that was my mistake, it just dies out all the time like i said in the first part.

 

Get the codes pulled and Post them then we can help more from there.

 

sorry its not throwing any codes at all, please help me out i need to get this fixed.

 

If the light is on when you drive then there should be codes.
It could me a ton of things.
But if you could get it to set codes that would really help.

 

yeah i know it could be a bunch of things but it doesnt throw any codes at all, the check engine light isnt on.

 

Try unplugging the Mass Flow sensor and see if it starts and idles. (It will set codes for it).
Make sure you have fuel pressure.
Make sure you have no big Vaccum leaks.
Make sure you have good spark.

 

thanks im gonna try all of these things, i told my friend about it and he said it might be that the MAF sensor is clogged or something to that extent, do you think this could be possible?

 

I wouldn't say clogged I would say maybe it is bad.

 

ok guys i fiinally got the codes and i desperately need your help. here they are.

it shows 2 codes as stored and 2 as pending.

Stored:
P0341: Camshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Range/Performance (Bank 1 or single sensor)
P0335: Crankshaft Position Sensor A Circuit

Pending:
P0341: Camshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Range/Performance (Bank 1 or single sensor)
P0336: Crankshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Range/Performance

dont get why it shows one of them twice but i really need your help. what do these mean? thanks for your help.

The Cam sensor might be going bad.
Or has the timing belt been changed lately?

 

Did you ever fix this problem? My Volvo is doing the same thing and is giving the same codes.
