Default Car Stalls While Taking Corners

Okay, time to look for a new car.....the latest problem. Every morning my low coolant light comes on (only in the morning) and I have plenty of coolant. Then my car will randomly stall when I am taking a corner. The last check engine light said it was my air pump but that turned off the other day. Any ideas????

Sorry to read about your problem.

When is the last time you changed your fuel filter ? Your fuel filter could be clogged ?
If your gas tank is low & your go around a corner, your pump may not be able to pick up fuel..?
How many miles on your Monte...? What year/model/engine
It also could be bad gas or bad fuel pump..

How much gas was in your tank when this happens...It's not good to run a tank low...It could pick up sediments in the gas tank & clog lines/fuel pump etc.


Please post as much infor as you can about your problem..
Good Luck

I agree with the fuel pump probably going bad.

The low coolant sensor is known for getting gummed up. If you are fine with coolant, you can unplug the sensor and not worry about that light.

in 03/04 they got rid of them because they were a bad design.
