this might tell you whether or not it is fuel related? honestly, i've never used it on a car, but used it on an old motorcycle i had... helped me distinguish a problem (needed carbs to be cleaned). but then again, maybe you shouldn't use it to avoid harming the car further before you're able to take it somewhere for a more thorough testing.
