Ok heres my situation my 1994 acura legend gs stalls when idoling. I mean the engine turns nomally then revs normally when key is turned then instead of dropping to a normal idol it falls below 1 rpm sounds like its clogged and half way powered then emits white smoke from exhaust and under engine then cuts off suddenly. I have taken it to miami acura and after 1200 dollars they have taken from me the car still doesnt work and the "certified experts" cant figure out the problem after a month in the freakin place somebody please help me! Im a student at the university of miami and need someones help to fix this car being that it is my only source of transportation again hope someone can help.&lt; src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" =text/&gt; </>&lt; =text/&gt; _uacct = "UA-939292-41"; urchinTracker(); </>&lt; src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" =text/&gt; </>&lt; =text/&gt; _uacct = "UA-939292-41"; urchinTracker(); </>

have they checked your coolant level?

there is a idle up controll valve that requires coolant to go throught it so it knows where to set your idle.

if you haven't solved the problem yet look at my posting "wierd problem" I had sevral people look at my car and no one knew what the problem was it took me a month to figure out it was my MAP sensor and my car did the same thing pretty much.
