dave, what preceeded the problem with it running? did you have to jump start it or anything? if so, then it may have lost the idle memory; and will keep stalling till the computer relearns. there is a proceedure to fix this, and I can find out what it is. I just dont remember it exactly.

ps. just thought about it. the alternators in these cars are notorious for taking a crap. we get lots of them in cars with 3800 series motors that are bad. dont always show a battery light, or charging system problem either. cheapes place around to have a charging system test done is sears. 10 bucks.

lemme know what the problem is, and if you need any parts; I may be able to save you some money.
