I have changed the spark plugs and the coil pack. My l car does not want to stay on when I am at a stand still. I have to pump the gas for it to stay on and sometimes it feels like it wants to die and at times it turns off. The rpm's are high and there ia a loud noise when I am trying to keep the car running.

Scan for codes and check fuel pressure with a gauge auto parts rent it and can scan it for free.

Hi Jess,

Here is a link to an article that features written step by step instructions and pictures explaining how to do the scan yourself, also I have included a link to our YouTube channel with a how to video on code scanning. Most scanners are inexpensive to purchase, you can purchase one online from sites like Amazon.com. Once you have the codes please get back to us so that we can further assist you. We are always happy to help.
