|  Is this an EGR problem? Recently my car idles very erratic and then stalls. It will only do this sometimes. Also if I don’t let the car warm up it will hesitate and lurch. Yesterday I was driving and when I shifted it would stall out. This is the best I can describe my problem. I think it is the EGR. If it is my EGR what should I do. Is there any way I can easily fix this problem? Thanks |

|  At different times I had cold stalling problems - 1st time was hi miles EGR that was sticking when engine cold and low vacuum. Warm was fairly OK. Later, EGR position sensor went bad, same cold start stalling. Then started having mainly rough idle - took the idle air speed motor off and cleaned the little valve - sprayed with carb spray and brushed - don't scrape and nick the valve or seat. Cleared right up. If someone you know has a code reader, good place to start. got mine about $50(?) couple years ago, great investment. |
