[QUOTE="absidian, post: 195408, member: 4356"] Checked the crankshaft position sensor? This causes all those symptoms you mentioned. They do fail from wear and tear... what mileage on yours? When this fails, the engine won't know accurately "where" and "what" is happening from the feedback loop, so it goes into "safe" mode. Hence limited revs, default/inaccurate fuelling/timing and will die when idling (especiallt when hot in traffic). Hope this helps... good luck. [/QUOTE]
