What Causes a Car to Stall While Driving but Restart Normally?
1 Answers
If the car can restart after stalling, it is mostly due to fuel system or electrical component malfunctions. In such cases, it is advisable to drive cautiously and, for safety reasons, immediately visit a nearby repair shop for a thorough inspection and repair to completely eliminate potential hazards. Below is additional information: 1. Circuit malfunction: This could be caused by a low-voltage power failure during driving, leading to stalling. In this situation, focus on checking the ignition, engine switch, and fuse box. 2. Electrical component malfunction: This issue is usually related to the ignition coil, capacitor, or electronic ignition module. Symptoms include the car starting initially, stalling after a while, then restarting and stalling again. 3. Fuel system malfunction: The car may restart but with difficulty if there are issues like a damaged fuel pump, ruptured fuel line, clogged carburetor fuel inlet, or an empty fuel tank. 4. Sensor malfunction: Faults in sensors such as the throttle position sensor, air flow sensor, intake pressure sensor, crankshaft position sensor, or camshaft position sensor can also cause stalling issues.
