Engine shut down while driving after valve cover replacement
Engine shut down while driving after valve cover replacement
Hello and sorry if my English is bad
I own a 06 coupe 6M/T, stopped the car for about 2 weeks waiting for valve covers to arrive, installed them as soon as I got them plus both bank 1 cam sensors, figured I’d go for a test drive and didn’t notice anything outside the ordinary. About 10 minutes into it the engine shuts down, tried cranking it and by the 3rd try it started but shut down instantly, kept trying and started about 3 more times (only when I turned the key to the off position and cranked it again but it didn’t work every try) one of the times it started I tried revving it and it stay running until I took my foot off the gas and it shut down again. Towed it home (battery died btw) A week later I cleaned the MAF sensor and TB, cranked the engine with a jumpstarter but didn’t start, tried spraying a little brake cleaner on the intake but no difference.
No check engine light or codes on the engine.
Any Help or recommendation is appreciated, thanks in advanced.
