engine stalling at idle

Post by **ratnic** » Sun Dec 22, 2002 5:46 am

Ok, I need a little help here. I have a '93 240sx se with the KA engine. When at idle the egine stalls. I have talked with a couple of people and we believe it could be one of two things. A fuel pump or a vacume hose. If anyone can help well it would be of great assistance. The head was replaced about a year ago and it has gotton worse over the last month. I am not convienced that it could be one of these parts causeing the problem. There is no pings of knocks in the engine it just stalling.

Thanks

TPS or IAC valve.

I not sure about that one. The vechile stall even when the engine is warm. If I shift to Neutral (it is a 5-speed) it still stalls. The engine shakes very bad as well when it starts to stall.

check your MAF sensor too

id go with the vacuum lines on this one, BUT if they are all in place, then try adjusting your ignition timing.
