Need Help Car Won't Start/Stalls
Hello all, I need a bit of help, my brother's V6 auto 02 Camaro stalled out the other day as he was accelerating from a stop, it took a while to start it and once he did it was running sluggish. Then last night, it threw a code for the O2 sensor, then it wouldn't start. This morning it started and he was driving to my house when it stalled out again. The low oil light also came on but when he checked the dip stick the line was where it should be. The car just hit 70,000 miles and was about to get an oil change today. Any Ideas what's going on?

Well, i had the same problem with the low oil light comming on like last week. and i replaced the oil leveling sensor yesterday, and everything is back to being normal. so check to make sure the sensor on the side of the oil pan is working properly. as for the car stalling all the time... im sorry but i have no idea what that could be.

i would check some things like the fuel pump, and check the tps sensor, i had a similar problem where it would stall when i pressed on the clutch. but my problem was the battery wires weren't connected fully and it was loosing power. most of the time it's sensors that are bad or not connected correctly.

check the wires to the 02 sensors for any damge. could very well need new 02s. how does the exhaust sound. is it quiter than normal maybe hissing. plugged cat could be the problem also. egr is another thing to look at. iac is another.

10 points for me!
lol i made a little door right on the back ledge in the middle and pulled it out that way i wish i took pictures because i welded it shut . you cut a hole big enough to fit the fuel pump threw and then you can make a couple of drill holes to seal the hole shut with a piece of sheet metal a little bit bigger than the hole and drill holes straight down an screw it in with some screws and it will always be easy access from there.
