A question on random stalling...

mkerns · #1 06-03-2008, 06:49 PM

I have a 2004 Dodge Stratus and I have had an off and on issue where while I am driving, my Stratus will stall for a split second then resume driving normally. It will occasionally (and seemingly more frequently) stall completely in mid-traffic. I have tried the possibility of a bad batch of gas by adding feul cleaner, but it doesn't seem to help me much this time. Any other ideas to what it could be?

Sticky Idle Air Controller ... You don't say how many miles ... I'd get some Seafoam and clean the intake tract and see if it free's it up

Well this started happening last winter but I am sure I was probably at 46-47 thousand miles by then. I'm not sure if thats still long enough but I figure its worth mentioning.

I also wanted to mention that it only happens while I am driving. If I am parked it is okay.
