Fuel Pump or Alternator or Tune Up..Go Figure...Please 700

posted by  someone claiming to be Jennifer on  Mon Jun 23 15:36 CST 2003 [RELATED]

For the past four weeks, my car has decelerated while driving to the point of stopping all together. It immediately starts back up without hesitation. Then, a couple of weeks ago my car would not start. I got it jump started, then got a new battery for it at Sears.

Yesterday, my car was completely dead. I had it jump started and proceeded to my mechanic. The mechanic has not figured anything out.

I haven't had a tune-up in several years. The car is a 1987, 740 GLE, and at 100,000 miles. I purchased it used 2.5 years ago. At that time it was at 79,000 miles. Could it be in need of a tune up, fuel pump or alternator? Any ideas on what it could be.

As always, thanks for your help. Jennifer
