I have tried replacing the alternator and water pump, but I still have not resolved the problem. At this point I am lost for an explanation. Replies to this message: elrjones (Sep 27, 2008 9:11 pm)

Replying to: soccermd (Sep 27, 2008 10:32 am) I was driving the car about once per week when it was having the most trouble, and since I don't use it much I let my dad start using it for commuting when gas got expensive (he has a big truck). Ever since he has been driving it daily it has been running great. How often do you drive your car? Also, it has been warm out, so maybe when it gets cold again it will start acting up again. Do the problems with your car seem to be related to the temperature too?
