I have a 1998 dodge caravan with 126,345 miles on it and when I stop at lights or stop signs it stalls? I have had the fuel filter changed, 2 oxygen sensors changed and the throttle position sensor changed, and it still stalls! Wher should I go from here? Thanks

Bet it runs great all the rest of the time also ...?
I think inside the throttle body is dirty.
Buy a can of air intake &.throttle body cleaner.
Take off the air handler & hose off up to the carb. (give yourself room)
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS !
Start the car.
Then spray the heck out of the insides of the carb and try to go even further down.
ALL WHILE THE CAR IS RUNNING. You will have to rev the engine to get it to work.
If you dont follow instructions correctly.
You can whack the Upstream O2 sensor. (which is another project to fix)
Really simple and it worked for me on several GC's.
Good Luck.

the idle air control can cause problems with idling - or lack thereof
check it out

Hey folks thanks for all the reponses!! So far I have changed both O2 sensors, tps sensor, cleaned up the throttle body real good , put in a idle control motor, and changed the fuel filter. Hopefully all of this works!! I just wish it would give off a code so I really new what it was and I could get it fixed!! Thanks again
