Exclamation Stalling Issue, 94 V10

i know there are a few Stalling issue threads around, but i didn't want to piggyback off somebody else' problem.

Ive got a 94 2500 with the V10,

i recently (last week) put a set of head gaskets on the motor, so i've been putting some miles on it around town to be sure i can trust the new gaskets right,

Well, I am going about 30 MPH down a fairly smooth road, and the truck stalls on me, without stopping i put it in Neutral, turn it over and it fires right up, i rev it a few times (in neutral) and it seems fine,

Once i place it back in Drive, and give it some gas, the RPM's would climb to about 1500 with a small amount of throttle, but then it would die off and stall, Tried big amounts of throttle, that also ended in it stalling,

After each stall, i would just put it back in Neutral, and it would fire right back up, no problems.

I got it home by putting it in Drive and basically allowing it to Idle its way up the street, i could give it a tiny bit of gas, (15 to 20 mph max) but if i gassed it any more, it would just keep dying off,

At one point the truck returned to full power, as if it never had the problem, but the issue returned in short order,


the Fuel Injectors were cleaned very well During assembly, and there didnt seem to be any problems with the wiring, i checked all the vacuum lines, and could not find any issues there, truck has been driving just fine until this popped up all the sudden...

I figured I'd look for some insight before i hook the truck up to the scan tool.

Regards,

Furnout.

I just flashed the engine codes, i got code 14: Map sensor voltage Too low or Too high.

think a bad Map could cause those kind of problems?

I would wager that the MAP sensor is bad. When I had a code for too high of voltage from the TPS, all I had to do is replace the sensor.
