Car sputtered shut down died..... August 17, 2007, 04:44:00 PM in the middle of base! we had to push it uphill to park it and then I started it and it ran for about 15 seconds and shut down when I put it in gear and moved a little bit. I got it to run a little while longer for like 2 mins then it sputtered and shut down again. I think it's flooding due to the high altitude and the jets are too big here. It has never done this up here before so I am trying to figure it out. Right now it is sitting in my work parking lot.What does everyone think? Quote Selected
