my work van keeps stalling at every stop. it would happen on and off for the last two weeks. now it is doing it all the time. the check engine light is not on. i am thinking it is fuel related but not sure.
it is a 1 ton with a 360. can anyone offer me some suggestions? thanks mike

It could be a lot of things. What checking have you done so far? Have you tried cleaning the throttle body or IAC? Whens the last time the air and fuel filters were changed?

Throttle body or IAS motor or check the coil itself if its rusty at all on the bottom its no good.Also when was the last time you put plugs in it. Air and fuel filter but Idle air speed motor are most likely

i haven't done anything yet. the fuel filter has me a little confused. is it part of the fuel pump? some research tells me there is a canister on top of the gas tank that holds the filter. i don't want to drop the tank twice.

i will go clean the throttle body right now.

when i come to a stop i can keep it running with on foot on the brake and one giving it a little gas.
thanks for your help.

The fuel filter is in tank at bottom of sender IIRC. Looks like a mini cal custom air cleaner filter on the throttle body cleaning along with iac cleaning.

Just pulled the code. P0505 idle control system malfunction. So should I get a new idle air control valve? Is that a dealer only part? Or will napa have it? Thanks again
