Question 03 Limited Shuts off

Hey Guys, just wanted to see what thoughts were on this. Sometimes the vehicle will shut off without warning. Now, so far only happens when driving at slower idle speeds. Any input is appreciated. thanks again.

What engine? Does it do it when you let off the gas? May be IAC or you may need to clean your fuel system.

Does it die instantly or does it idle down and stall out? More details....

(I-6 4.0) Well, so far it does this when backing out of driveway or coasting through a parking lot. So, basically only at idle speed I'd say.

I would check the Idle Air Control.

Hey guys, replaced IAC and TPS, cleaned throttle body. So far everythings working good. Thanks for the suggestions. Also might mention it had a high idle issue on start up which seems to be taken care of. Sittin at between 7 and 9 hundred RPM's on cold starts. Just below 7 when hot.
