i have a 1995 car, it starts up as soon as you turn the key runs fine for about 10 sec then cuts off. does it every time. the check engine light is not on but it might just not be runnin long enough to throw the code. im aiming at either the iac or tps or maf but i hate to spend the money to replace all of them and it only be one.....any one else had this problem? any one know how to manually check the codes on a 95? i do not have a obd1 scanner and my obd2 scanner wont read it.

You have the "OBD 1.5" it is a OBD I system with an OBD II connector, does it die or just cut out? have you tried holding your foot on the gas to keep it going?

yep tried that it wont stay runnin even with the pedal floored. and ya gues it is a obd 1.5 cause my scnner does fit it but wont read. plus the light isnt on anyways. when it cuts off it just dies no struggle at all just cuts off

What is the security light doing during this?

it comes on like normal when the key firsst turn over then as soon as you start to crank it it goes off and does not come back on

??????

Run back out, leave door open, lean outside, turn key to power on, (don't attempt to start) listen for fuel pump to prime. If you don't hear anything, this might be the problem. Mine did the same thing a few years ago.

Get back to us.

fuel pump primes fine....but could it be possible for it to cut off after the car is started? when it cuts off its not realy like its runnin out of gas its more like everything shutting down at once

more like its cutting off spark which is why im aiming at the pcm or ecu but i would like to know if the maf or iac or tps can cause simalar problems

If you have the ability to, do a fuel compression test. It'* possible for the fuel pump to prime enough to get the engine going, but either wiring/or pump could be failing. Which also leads to when the last time the fuel filter was changed?

Check your battery cables and the connections.

Autozone has a loan a tool program. They should be able to loan you a fuel pressure tester. Easily connects to the Schrader valve on your fuel rail.
