c5 engine
Hello, guys im only 1 year into owning my 1999 c5 corvette I've done a good amount of repairs with my mechanic the Vette doctors I have an appointment in June. however last week I ran into a problem I got a low coolant sign on my dash and it said to check the gauge looked like my engine might of been overheating, I got it changed however before I got it changed anytime I started my car on I would hear first it cranking then the engine would turn on and then the next day the same thing but this time it would stall as I put the car into any gear it would move a little but then the engine turn off
I got the " reduce engine power" and check engine light came on with the code P1518 after that I didn't drive my car. so hoping someone can help me and figure out what's going

Look at post #9 on for details. Verify your battery is healthy before you go too crazy trying to diagnose!
