97 Sidekick Sport 1.8L - CUTS OUT AT 1/4 THROTTLE
#4
run it longer, hot.
if it dont drive safe?
then idle it till hot then gun the engine, see what DTC's set (after the clearing of them (push reset)

* I did not record the number of the code and just erased it. (wow)
* I have not had a chance to drive the vehicle yet to see if codes re-set, but it cuts out every time I have driven it for months.
* You are right, it probably is one cylinder cutting out which lames this engine drastically.
* I have added fuel system cleaner and moisture eliminator.
My elevation is about 3000 Feet. I think I can find a gauge tomorrow and check for compression and see if it is close to 195 or 200.
I will also note the color on # 1 Cylinder - Front cylinder
