Hello,

My car started to have rough idling when waiting at stop lights. Earlier today the car stalled 3 times when i was driving to work. Check engine light is not on. 3 months ago had fuel injection cleaned / spark plugs chged / and just couple of days ago replaced air filter and fuel filter. When driving everything runs normal. Please help..thanks again

Check and see if EGR valve is stuck open or closed

So this morning I cleaned out mass air flow sensor/throttle body and replaced idle air control valve. Drove it around the block so far everything is running properly and idling stopped fluctuating. Hopefully it doesn't come back...will keep you posted

I have a 1996 Max and had the same problem when I first got it two yrs ago. I replaced the air flow sensor and that took care of it.
