    Jordan, somebody, help!

    Well my car is still running bad. I will be driving along like normal and sometimes when i hit a bump it seems that all of a sudden my car will lose all but a little bit of power. Cant get the engine to rev up at all. Youll find many other post on this on here. Everytime i think ive figured it out it does it again. Comes and goes for about 2 to 3 months now. This is what ive replaced.

    TPS
    Plugs
    wires
    Fuel P R
    Filter
    fuel pumps
    Relay
    Coil
    Cap
    Rotor

    Any other ideas? Thanks

      Which relay did you change? There's more than one that can do that.

          Try the Main relay next. It's right next to the fuel relay, sits down a little lower.

                check your trunk ground cable, mine vibrated loose, and the car died, poped hood, slammed door fiddled with fused jumped back in turns out slamming the door was making the cable make contact again..... tightnd the cable down never had a problem since......
