Keeps shutting off !!!!
 
I drive a 2000 Mazda Familia and every time i drive the vehicle about 45min to an hour it starts to sputter then shuts off. After about 3 to 4 minutes it will start again and then repeats the same thing again.
i really need some help with this one.:(

Silverfox: to me this sounds like a fuel delivery problem. Did yo ever replace the fuel filter? Did you check the fuel pressure after starting and then again after 35 minutes of driving? Do you have a CEL? what are the codes?

To be honest i changed the fuel pump but i could never find the fuel filter, my cell is 1-242-5651331

Can anyone tell me where is the fuel filter located in my car.

Come on! Get a Haynes manual or get under the car and under the hood to trace the fuel lines until you find it!

SILVERFOX205 11-09-2011 04:08 PM

I had already done that but i took your advice a made a second look because the first time i couldn't find it but this time i think i did.

Great! So you replaced the filter and it fixed your problem?
