Not Larry... but if you haven't changed your dist. cap and rotor yet, go ahead and do that while they're much easier to reach (MO26 and MO28 from NAPA...sometimes those part numbers are preceded by "ECH")...also buy yourself a can of carb cleaner and give the tb a good cleaning while it's off. Removing that spacer might help too...haha...sorry, I just don't care for em.

Okay Larry...back to you...lol

Don't use the spacer

As GB2000 said just clean it up good use all your
V6 sensors because you know there good

Get a new gasket for a 5.2 they are only like $1

start shut off start shut off start shut off 3
times than start and run this will alow it to
learn the new idle

It will take 50 miles for a short term learn and
after 200 miles it will start to fine tune and
run good, it may run a little funny for the first
100 miles or so don't worrie that is normal until
the computer adjust for the increased flow

Thats it just bolt on and go it will add around
15hp at the wheels and better mid and top end perf
the low end will remain about the same

Larry,
Hi! My '93 5 spd CC 2WD stalls any time at all. Usually once a day. Then I pull over and it starts up. Doesn't matter if its hot or cold (weather) or how long I've been driving ( 5 mins or an hour). I don't have any ideas.
Please help!
Billy B

Billy sounds like the fuel pump or relay check
presure 40 to 50 psi and should hold it for a
few hours

posible ASD relay also

if it does it more often when the tank is low
think about a new pump

Get a master replacement it has new filter pump
regulator and guage sender

When it does die look on the fuel rail there is
a schrader valve remove cover and push the valve
in its just like a tire valve stem be carfull no
gas sprays out and hits you if none does spray
no fuel

other things a coil can also do that and not trip
any codes
