Re: 1992 - Stall After Surge / Slow Cycling

Time for an update.... I've had the car back from the mechanic for two weeks now and put on around 300 miles with no stalls or motor speed fluctuations that I've been complaining about. This time they put in a remanufactured computer. The owner of the shop said that the one I had was known bad. It's...

Re: 1992 - Stall After Surge / Slow Cycling

Today’s update…. It’s been in the shop since my last post. Unfortunately, it never seems to fail when he’s driving, so while he doesn’t think it’s possible, I’m wondering if the gauges he puts on changes the response making it work. This time I’m getting a remanufactured computer. He is also going t...

Re: 1992 - Stall After Surge / Slow Cycling

Thanks heavywoody. I'll pass that on to the mechanic. I assume that TCC is the torque converter that was replaced as part of this situation. It's back in the shop today after rolling into the parking lot at work. (Stalled at the gate and didn't want to restart right away, so I had to pop it into neu...

Re: 1992 - Stall After Surge / Slow Cycling

Sorry for the late response. Still need to get my 5 posts so the don't need approval. Back to square one. After about 5 miles of normal operation it started running real rough at stop signs, to the extent I felt the need to pop it into neutral in order to keep it running. Then, it decided to stall b...

Re: 1992 - Stall After Surge / Slow Cycling

That's a good question. I was going to give it week before writing an update and that would have been today (since I got it back from the mechanic). I gave him the list, and he checked and cleaned everything, but didn't see anything bad. One thing he mentioned was he wasn't there for the last repair...

Re: 1992 - Stall After Surge / Slow Cycling

Thanks for the suggestions! I really appreciate it. It's a 3.1 and no Check Engine Light comes on (at least until after it dies when the whole dashboard lights up). The spark plugs and wires were done in October, 2017, so I don't think that's the issue. Now I've got a few things to check into. Thank...

1992 - Stall After Surge / Slow Cycling

I have a 1992 Beretta with around 70,000 miles which I bought new. My mechanic is having some difficulty with and issue that popped up in the last month - mostly because it never seems to happen for him. Periodically, when no gas is being applied it will stall. Usually, this is preceded be the engin...
