Engine Mechanical

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Verify that the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) is not above 266°F (130°C). This condition causes the PCM to operate in Engine Coolant Over Temperature-Fuel Disabled Mode. While in Engine Coolant Over Temperature-Fuel Disabled Mode, the PCM turns fuel OFF to 4 cylinders at a time to keep engine temperatures from reaching damaging levels. The system perceives Engine Coolant Over Temperature-Fuel Disabled Mode as lack of power, miss, or rough idle. If the vehicle operates in Engine Coolant Over Temperature-Fuel Disabled Mode, see appropriate article in ENGINE COOLING.
