it will be fine for the first minute or so, then start racing, then stalling, then racing.... it seems to have to do a lot with the ambient temperature outside, the warmer (70's) weather makes it worse. the only codes on the ECU are the TDC Sensor, which i think is there just because it stalled, but not the cause of the stall. i've checked out lots of things with the help of my chilton's book, can't find anything obviously wrong. the plugs are all evenly fouled, cause it's running lousy, but why is it running lousy? i've cleaned up the dist cap/rotor (not that old) i don't like the wires on there but they aren't that old (and the problem is with every cylinder) i don't have a lot of rocker arm clicking until the oil get's up there, but no worse then it's been for years. changed the fuel filter out, changed the water thermostat, recently had the timing belt/water pump done (160K miles now) i've checked various sensors and valves and they seem to operate properly. (EGR seems to work fine when i suck on the tube... the EGR sensor signal is about right 1.2Volts)..... any ideas before i bring it someplace where they probably will spend much time trying to figure what's wrong? Help, Please! thanks, michael
