Car Forum / Ford / Ford Cars / July 20051991 Tempo - stalls at stop signs
My Tempo dies after about 5 minutes of running it in town. It simply needs restarted - but it dies at intesrsections.... Any idea ? Could it be spark plugs ? Battery ? Typically, if I come to a stop sign, and idle, it will just die. poof. Turn the key, starts right back up. Just put a new starter in it. Any ideas ? Thanks in advance > Typically, if I come to a stop sign, and idle, it will just die. > poof. Turn the key, starts right back up.

Throttle body may be cleaned on vehicle. Badly carnoned IAC will probably need to be removed and soaked in solvent to clean. Really bad carbon may require replacement of IAC. IAC = Idle Air Control Good Luck Lugnut |
