Stalling and idleing problem

shishcubob · #1 (**permalink**) 09-18-08, 01:08 AM

Hi i have a 95 eldorado with about 114k on it. I bought it from a guy back in november and it ran perfect but for a month or so now my car has had a really big idleing problem and sometimes while driving at low speeds or taking corners it will stall. At first i thought that it was maybe the throttle body. so i cleaned it and it didnt do anything. Then i took out the spark plugs and replaced them. Still had the problem. Im thinking it may be something to do with the fuel injectors. Please help!

I have the same car. I had a simular problem. It was the EGR valve. I took mine off and cleaned it out with carb cleaner and a small screwdriver. After I reinstalled it the car ran normal again.
What codes are you getting?

Pull the DTC's. If the EGR is sticking it will set a DTC for it. Probably due for a cleaning anyway. See the Tech Tips section for a tutorial if you don't know how to do it.

I took a gander at the codes again today and po39 also comes up. I know what the code means but im not sure that would be the culprit of the problem
