I remember flooring it in 2nd gear up to about 5.5-6k rpm then shifting to 3rd and then it stopped accelerating. engine light flashed and I pulled over and it shut down. It would start up again but the RPM would fluctuate a lot then turn itself off 1-2 seconds after.
was also 100 degrees F and think I saw steam when I opened the hood. some water leaking on the ground probably from the AC. |
Check engine light flashing is usually misfires, they can be due to fuel or spark issues.
log looks ok nothing major.
ususual for you to see steam under hood, check coolant again.
a/c drain shouldnt get into engine bay
