    2002 Dodge ram
    My truck will crank and sounds real good, but it will not stay running, even if I try to press the accelerator. It just dies. Any ideas on what could be wrong and the least expensive things to check first?

    OK this may sound strange but I had this happen in my shop. I was never able to find out why it worked but it did . First make sure spark and fuel are good. If so buy carb cleaner and spray half the can in the throttle body spray the linkage and all inside . After you spray try to start it if the truck will not crank because too much cleaner then just pull a spark plug or two out she will crank when she fires up keep it running and after it stays running spray the rest of the cleaner in while its running

Chevrolet Cavalier 2002 [ 2 Answers ]

All of a sudden, out of the blue, my car starts squeaking and creaking. Sounds like the front end is going to fall out. It is specifically when the tires go over a bump. Doesn't get worse when turning or pulling into my driveway. Does it need a lube? Is it the shocks? Is it the chassis? Help.
