I posted a few days ago that I had some weird stalling problems. It would go for about 5 miles, then die; start it up and drive it a few minutes, then die; repeat cycle. You guys gave me plenty of Pro-Tips and here is what happened.
From information learned here and obd-codes.com and tomshints.com, I spent last Saturday trouble shooting. The Purge Valve Sensor was getting 8V, but only allowing .4 V. The new one was allowing 4V through, just like Tom of tomshints said it should. The Purge Valve Solenoid was only pulling 14psi but the new one pulled 20 psi, like it is supposed to do. I've driven it over 50 miles since then and no stalling.
Thanks again. I truly appreciate the help.
