    Idle/stalling issue with 96 Caravan

    The wife drives a 1996 Dodge Caravan, not a bad little thing (if you can get over the annoying sewing machine engine noise and the lack of acceleration inherent to a 2.4 in a minivan ) but it's developed a stalling issue lately.

    If you start the engine and hold the gas a little bit (less than 1000 rpm) it will run fine, no missing or anything, but if you let off the gas, it dies. If you're driving and let off the gas, it dies. As long as you're pressing the pedal a little, it runs like a champ. I'm leaning towards the IACV needing cleaned, but I wondered if anyone had anything else I should look for?

    Thanks!

      I did!

      Pulled the IACV, cleaned it out, worked a rag around inside the TB where it fits in, put it back together and it idles like it's brand new. (and I look like a genius! )
