Guest afpony Posted May 29, 2002 Report Share Posted May 29, 2002 I have a 94 5.0 that idles fine, but will occasionally stall out of idle. It doesn't surge or sputter when it stalls, it simply quits running, almost as if the key were turned off. The first thing I did was to clean my idle air controller, then adjusted fuel pressure, checked for vacuum leaks, adjusted timing (it is at about 12 degrees now, and bumped the idle up a little, and the problem is still there. If anyone has any ideas, feel free to let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boost-n-Juice Posted May 30, 2002 Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 how many miles are on the car? Check you EGR valve and fuel filter. What mods do you have done to it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest afpony Posted May 31, 2002 Report Share Posted May 31, 2002 Miles are 127k. EGR valve and fuel filter are fairly new. I tinkered with some more vacuum lines, and think I found the problem. Hope so, anyway. As far as mods go, it has headers, h-pipe, flowmaster exhaust, K&N intake, MAF sensor, 70mm throttle body, GT-40 upper and lower intake, Edelbrock performer heads, advanced timing, adjustable fuel pressure regulator, E cam, Hurst short throw shifter, and 3.73 gears. Kinda fun to drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DarkSVT Posted June 7, 2002 Report Share Posted June 7, 2002 Does it stall when you first start the car or when you have been driving for awhile? And when it stalls, does it start right back up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
