Default Rough idle and stalling help

Hey guys I have a 2006 dodge stratus 2.4 and its running bad here are the symptoms:

-long crank time
-rough running
-runs at idle but once its above 1000rpm it has to stay there or it will die when it drops to idle

Check engine light is on with no code

Gotta be a code if the light is on. How are you reading that? When was your last tune up? How many miles? Things that come to mind, tune up, check/clean throttle body, idle air control and throttle position sensor for starters. Also check for vacuum leaks.

Sounds like a fuel delivery problem to me. Id check fuel pressure. Could be a bad injector or fuel pump.
