Sputtering
Hey guys wuts up? I am having some issues with my car. I got gas yesterday and notice that she was running little ruff, today I went to walmart and the car was running really bad it started to sputter I was at the bank and she turn off and ran really ruff after i started her up, it got to the point it started to back fire a little on my way home she was sputtering and i could not get her above 20 miles and hour and she turn off on me, the mean time I notice that my ac was not blowing cold air either and my right signal light was on and when I use it would blink fast, also when I drive the signal light turns off until I stop then it comes back on. Also on my dash the green with a circle is on and my abs. The funny thing is on my way home all of a sudden it clear up it ran find. So I park it at my house. I waited I think 2 hours went back out and started her she ran find I put the ac on and it was blowing cold air I took it for about a 20 min ride but when I came back and park it the ac was blowing warm air again but ran smooth. What do you think could it be?
I am afraid of driver her because I am a right leg amputee and on disability and can't afford a tow truck.

Check engine light came on yet?
Could be (hopefully) something as simple as fuel filter or a vacuum leak. Other stuff, like say a failing O2 sensor or something like that I would wait for the CEL to come on first so we can get the trouble codes and attempt to diagnose from there.

Bet you dimes to doughnuts one of your coils took a crap. I dealt with many of those same symptoms in my Navigator just yesterday. It finally tossed a code after many miles that confirmed #1 coil was misfiring.
