- Starting Concerns: Stalls After Start
- Stalls/Quits: Idle, Acceleration, Cruise
- Runs Rough
- Misses
- Buck/Jerk
- Hesitation/Stumble
- Surge
- Unique Idle concerns: Rolling Idle
NOTE:
For stalls on passenger car applications, engine may stall if left running while refueling. Advise customer to turn engine off while refueling to avoid contamination or damage to the EVAP system.
| SYSTEM/COMPONENT | REFERENCE ( PINPOINT TEST - CNG, FLEX-FUEL & GASOLINE ) unless noted |

Check The Following PIDs:
|
DPFEGR PID value not within 0.15V of KOEO value:
|
| For vehicles that run rough at idle: With the key on, engine off, check the INJxF PIDs (the "x" indicates the injector number, there will be one INJxF PID for each engine cylinder). All INJxF PIDs must indicate no fault (or NO). |
INJxF PID(s) indicate a fault (an injector circuit fault is indicated): Natural Gas applications: GO to A: Natural Gas Fuel Control STEP HA27. All others: GO to H: Fuel Control STEP H46. |
| Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor | GO to C: Mass Air Flow Sensor STEP DC25. |
| Secondary Ignition System | For vehicles equipped with a coil pack ignition system, GO to PINPOINT TEST JC
. For all others, GO to PINPOINT TEST JB . |
| Fuel Delivery System | Natural Gas Applications: GO to B: Natural Gas Fuel Delivery System STEP HB1. All Others: GO to C: Fuel Delivery System STEP HC1. |
| Exhaust System | GO to F: Catalyst Efficiency Monitor and Exhaust Systems STEP HF5. |
| PCV System | GO to G: Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) System STEP HG1. |
| Natural Gas applications with rough idle: Injector circuits between NG module and injectors. |
GO to A: Natural Gas Fuel Control STEP HA27. |
| EVAP System | GO to X: Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Monitor and System STEP HX14. |
| Automatic Transmission | Automatic Transaxle/Transmission - Refer to the appropriate AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION article. |
| Base Engine | Engine System - Refer to the appropriate ENGINE article. |
| Intake Air System | GO to U: Intake Air Systems STEP HU1. |
| Applications with A/C Pressure Sensor (3 wire sensor): A/C pressure (ACP) sensor input to PCM |
GO to S: Air Conditioning Pressure (ACP) Sensor STEP DS18. |
| Additional Testing | GO to Z: Intermittent STEP Z1. |
| Additional Checks:
NOTE:
Some applications have a PID that will indicate whether the PCM is reducing torque (TQ_CNTL) (#095E b0), and if so, why the torque is being reduced (#095Eb1-13) (0 = No torque reduction requested; 1 = Torque Truncation. Cuts fuel to protect when line pressure fails to minimum limit; 2 = Traction Control Event. Cuts fuel and/or spark for traction control; 3 = Vehicle Speed Limit - Cuts fuel).
