btmaldon Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Looking on eBay, they look like they are the same for both cars. However check the connections are the same as some have an oval and some a square connector. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btmaldon Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Check the vacuum lines, make sure the intake isnt taking in air. There is one to the throttle body that can perish after a number of years. Also, when was the air and fuel filter last changed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thedaftapple Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 I changed the fuel and air filter about six months ago when she first had the car it just seems to run fine on start up for about 5 mins then starts to die after that once its warmed its fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
