My eg won't start,could it be the battery conections,or the starter,it dosent hold idle and it dies out help,thanks

damn bro check if you can roll start if not its a sensor or ground issue i would think hopefully you get this resolved so u can get home post quick and i will help all i can. check pm for my # and call i will try to help.

does it turn over? what does it sound like? have u tried jumping it? maybe its just a bad battery.

Its not the battery,I t does roll start,there's a click and the fuel pump hum

maybe ur filter is clogged up. have u let the tank get low or empty lately? when was the last time u changed it? if it wont stay on after a cold start clean ur iacv and ur fitv on the intake manifold.

So this is wat happen,I drove it to work about 15 mile as soon as I got on the freeway it died,got a push from a tow ruck and it started,arriving to work I was giving it a lil gas so it could hold idle and I let go and it completly died,pushed it agin and it started ,parked it and started it rite back up everything was normal,went a half hour later same started no problem,and know about an hour later same problem won't start

Would it roll start with a bad battery conection

it may depends i mean if the alternators good and you pop-start it your getting electricity from that because the motors spinning well....now if its the starter which it may be id tap it or something to see if you could free it up....but this happened to me where the starter was working perfectly fine for a bit then quit on me and yet it also worked here and there before it completely went on me......tapping the starter may not work all the time it just free's it up somewhat....if its possible and you feel ok doing it jump the two terminals on the starter to see if it just clicks or turns the motor over.....if it dose this(since you said your battery was ok) then yea you should be able to see fi your starters ok now make sure its in neutral and the key on when doing this or it wont work.....

Hey thanks,ill try that wen I get home,any other possible things it could be

is your check engine light on when the car is running?
