    a few days ago papasok ako ng opisina, buti na lang mabagal ang takbo ko. bigla na lang namatay ang makina. syempre restart agad ako. nagstart naman kaagad. pero namamatay uli. kelangan ko pang bombahin ang gas pedal. pagni-rev ko ng ni-rev ayun back to normal na uli.

    checked battery & electrical connections. nothing unusual found. ano kaya ito?

    hunch ko sa may ignition. o kaya sa carb.

    97 honda city; carburetor type; manual transmission

    Ganyan din nangyayari sa akin. Namamatayan pag nasa high gears lalo la pag hiwady driving. Palit lang ng fuel filter. Ok na.

    Start with the cheapest parts that you can replace right away and work your problem up to the expensive parts.

    unahin mo spark plugs... then fuel and air filters... high-tension wire, then fuel pump, then servo kit...

    ako pinalitan ko na lahat... tapos ang sira lang pala servo kit... ayun yun mga luma kong parts ayos pa rin nakatambak lang sa garage... kaya gawin mo pagpalit spark plugs pa-check mo servo kit mo pati fuel pump agad...

    hmm..nangyari na rin sa amin yan..mamamatayan na ako then had to pump the gas pedal just to keep it going..hula ko dati baka may nakapasok na air dun sa fuel line..so instead of fuel going to the engine mismo, air ang pumasok so nag-choke yung engine.

    I dont think it would be problems with plugs, even if one plug fails the engine would still
    run, roughly though. Air filter also would not cause a sudden problem, car would work with a very dirty or no air filter, only gas mileage would be affected.

    I would suggest check the fuel filter, it could be that there is inadequate fuel being sent to the engine.

    I'm not sure what else to check though...

    cant be the plugs coz when bench revs the engine, ok. If problem w the sparks, it would be palyado all the way. has to be somewhere w the fuel delivery, may bara somewhere, kasi when u rev thus supply fuel thru the system ok, pag idling or low rev, namamatay.

    sorry for the long delay folks..

    here's what i did so far:

    checked battery connection
    checked fuses under the hood and inside the cabin
    checked all vacuum hoses
    installed my stock hi tension wires
    installed my stock spark plugs
    changed fuel filter

    pagkapalit ko ng fuel filter, nawala ung symptoms ng 3 days. hindi ko nagamit ng halos 3 days din sa weekend. nung ginamit ko uli, pagka start ko, erratic ang idling. tapos namatay na naman buti naman nagstart uli pero di na makuha sa pag rev namamatay pa rin ang ginawa ko steady sa 2000 rpm ng 3 minutes. ayun nag normal.

    bad fuel maybe?

    a mechanic also told me idle control solenoid daw...

    argghhhh

    palinis mo muna yung fuel tank sa gas station. sayang yung fuel filter kung barado agad.

    i disagree... happened to me before. namamatayan ako while trying to accelerate. fouled up na pala plugs ko. after replacing them, okay na ulit.

Namamatayan habang tumatakbo? ano naman kaya ito?
