my car stalled then wouldn't start again something that shows codes and he then replaced fuel pump, throttle sensor, coil packs, plugs and wires and the ECM. Now the car will start but won't stay running very long he said it is running off only 2 cylinders that's why it won't stay running so I was wondering if this is the problem and if i could get some info how to fix it.

Hi,

What codes were retrieved? It sounds like a lot has already been done.

Do you know which cylinders misfiring? Let me know. Also, let me know what codes were originally retrieved and what codes are present at this point.

If possible, record the engine cranking and running and upload it for me to hear. That may be very helpful.

Take care,

Joe
