HELP!!! My car won't stay on!!!

[boisdsm]

As the title says my car starts just fine but won't stay on. It'll just go to 2k then just at the same speed as a normal start going to 750 it'll just go straight to 0. Now if I hold the gas pedal It'll stay on.

back story
I bought the car it was driving fine till the water pump blew out had a shop do the wires, plugs, coil, and timing/water pump to our surprise balance shaft eliminated(I know common mod) took the shop a week to get it done. Car ran good for three weeks. Only issue was if I took off with out letting it warm up it wouldn't go past 3k. Once the needle moved just past the c on temp gauge it was smooth sailing and the world was great til last week. One day I took off in a rush an the car sounded like a Subaru and drove completely crappy let her sit unplugged cables found one broken injector clip pushed it in tight and no prob drove home just fine. Went to work added a quart of oil and that's when hell broke loose. On the drive home It drove as it did before and began shutting off at lights. It would still stay on at times Over the weekend I replaced the broken injector clip. In my attempt to clean the MAF I took it apart while still in the tube it sits in removed the plastic cover and then a metal on saw the chip board and said screw that I'm not touching that! Closed it up and sprayed MAF cleaner on the sensor bar part while in its housing. Washed the k&n air filter. Turned the key and now it has its current symptoms and doesn't change

I bought the car in aug with a broken shift cable(reason for the car sitting) was a pain in the ass to find big thank you to vtecthis start to driver her 3 weeks in noticed her starting to overheat changed Tstat not luck downed her til last jan or early feb where I got the water pump and timing job done at a reputable shop car ran like a dream then the symptoms began first I did notice if I kept driving all day you know in and out she would start to want to shut off at lights after like tue third or forth time starting her up and driving. All was ok then the "running on three cylinders" began but would go away then longer period then on the last "good" day drove her to work no probs popped some oil in 1 quart midday when I left work hell broke loose ran with that 3 cylinder thing took her to my bros couldn't figure it out took her home and that's where my first post comes in

Have you checked your plug wires and spark plugs/gaps? Have you added more fuel yet? You said the shop did your timing belt too? Maybe the timing is off a little, if so this reputable shop should fix it for nothing.

Done and done in fact all new ignition system. I posted a new vid of my car today got to drive her a lil also tried the heet let it sit in a couple daysand put 3 gallons of gas in and drove it for a few before the vid ( boisdsm talon start problem part 3 ) on YouTube

Ill check it out in a minute.

Okay saw your video, I will almost guarantee its a boost leak or a dirty throttle body/intake manifold, run half a can of seafoam through your brake booster, you know how that procedure works right? And then clean your throttle body carefully.. If that doesn't help then were likely looking at a boost leak.. Is your BOV recirculated? Can't really tell from the video.

Also, Is that your GTO I saw?

Ok thought I'd post an update I got tired of her sitting around so I drove her to the shop who did the timing they said it was some line after the MAF that was clogged and dirty. That was last Thursday she drove fine cept dipping down to 650 every so often. Today I was driving her to work took a hard right my cel came on and it started revving like it does when the MAF is disconnected and or a bad iac. I'm just so tired of probs damn you addictive cars!!!

 

[airmail96]

Hmm hard turn brought on the CEL? Maybe wiring somewhere?

 

[boisdsm]

It was a bit rough last minute decision on a yellow; ill check the witing when I ge outta work if not too dark I did notice the cel shut off at one point driving to work but for like 2 seconds also when I got to work I unplugged the MAF and no difference in rev pattern of ups and downs
