Inspection procedure 10
When the engine is hot, it stalls at idling. (Die out)
Probable cause
The cause is probably an improper air/fuel ratio, faulty electronic-controlled throttle
valve system, compression pressure. In addition, if theenginestalls suddenly, another
possible causemight be a poorconnector contact.DMalfunction of the ignition system
DMalfunction of air/fuel ratio control system
DMalfunction of electronic-controlled throttle valve
system
DMalfunction of the throttle body
DPoor connector contact
DImproper compression pressure
