When it stalls, it starts back up like all is normal. bad iac would probably be the answer then. take it out and look at it. see if it moves properly. it would reset to a different level at idle vs coming down from high speed. You can try cleaning it with brake clean. Mo' Farts Moderated by "tbagger".

The light blinks 1 time then pause then blink 2 times pause then blink 5 times then 5 times. According to what I found on the internet that means a battery disconnect. I replaced the battery and cable ends about 3 months ago. I will check all of the connections in the morning. Does that sound correct?

One other thing that I haven't run into on a Mopar but I have on many GM's. If the lockup convertor isn't releasing it will kill it at stop lights. If you slowly come to a stop does it seem like the engine is draggin it down like a manual in gear and braking to a stop? I doubt that is it and I am still hedging my bet on a vacuum leak or intake pan leak (also a vacuum leak). Keep us informed.

It drives like all is normal but stalled 3 times yesterday. I went to the store this evening and it stalled when I backed out of the driveway but then didn't do it again going to the store or back home again. Thats about 10 miles round trip. Maybe something will show up in the morning.

It has not stalled the first time. Can we mark this up as bad gas? I did buy the last from somewhere I don't normally go to. What do you thinK?
