What Causes the Engine to Stall While Driving but Restart Normally?
1 Answers
If the engine can be restarted after stalling, it is mostly due to fuel system or electrical component issues. In such cases, it is advisable to drive cautiously and, for safety reasons, immediately visit a nearby repair shop for a thorough inspection to completely eliminate potential faults. Below is additional information: 1. Circuit Malfunction: This could occur due to low-voltage power failure during driving, causing the engine to stall. In this situation, focus on checking the ignition system, engine switch, and fuse box. 2. Electrical Component Failure: This issue is usually related to the ignition coil, capacitor, or electronic ignition module. The engine may start initially, stall after a while, restart, and then stall again. 3. Fuel System Malfunction: Possible causes include a damaged fuel pump, ruptured fuel line, clogged carburetor fuel inlet, or an empty fuel tank. In such cases, the car may restart but with difficulty. 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 lead to stalling issues.
