stalling issue
#1
Hello,
first cool this is here.
Well to the problem.
I have searched "WEB" also asked a few people.
THe mountianeer 98 seams to run great , well every once in awhile coming to a stop it dies. it also sometimes while going about hwy speeds then it will miss. it gives me a code once in a while, i think it was 420 something, about cat issue bank one. have no idea what bank one is. lol
Any help would be great. I am leaning toward afuel pump problembut dont know if there is any other control for fuel control.
Thank you in advance.

The stalling is a possible intake manifold gasket the v-6's have an issue with that. Or it could be a Idle Air Control valve.
Ill work on finding out which side is bank 1 i believe 1 is always on the left but want to make sure.Edited by: MercAdvisor

CoolI might actually be getting somewhere or at least a direction.
I think the Idle Air Control Valve would be easier to change will try it first. lol
I can change that right, like any other sensor?
I will do a test on the intake, hopefully its not it. but its probably cheaper.GRIN
Thank you again.
I really appreciate the help.

Hello,
Well I am a little late but finally did get back to the Merc. issue.
Well I took atorch and found no leaks, so assumed it was the IAC.
So today i went out lookingand only could find a V8 one.
Well
V6 = $100+
V8 = $50+
Looked at two and the only problem was the wire came out the back on V8 one. put gasket "came in box" on then tightened down.
Well everywhere I drove it today before, it would die. "Hence why I had to get er done. .lol "
Now it runs better and does not die yet.
So I think we got it. GRIN
Thanx Much.
