Had a PS eco header on my car to pass smog, left it on about a month and never had any problems with it.

ok it may not have been vapor lock. it would stumble and die at idle but start right back up again. and then one time it was idling like crap at like 400 rpms and i opened the throttle wide open and nothing happened. over all it was idling like crap and kept wanting to die.

any ideas?

vapor lock is heat related , it is the gas boiling in the fuel lines , and it will shut the motor , and it will not start tell the line cools enough to get the fuel past it


how many miles on the car ?


it could be just a idling issue , i think there was a issue with idle on some cars


you might want to run your VIN # through that service website and see if there is a update for it
