My car still stalls, did it twice last night.

It flutters all of a sudden at idle, and falls off instantly dead. It starts hard after that, sometimes taking a couple minutes.

When it's failing, I smell plenty of gas. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) The lights remain bright, not a global electrical puzzle.

This happens warm, not a specific heat range that I know of, I could not get the CHT to fail on a meter, 4 trys, thru 45 minutes of cooling. I don't think it's the trouble.

Any thoughts. Temporary ignition system failure? How can I safely check.

Thanks.

2 things came to mind while reading the thread at the beginning & then I got down to Bowlsbys answer. His were what I was thinking also... the CSV or a leaky inj. I had a problem that sounds like this so I pulled the injectors & cleaned them. Also pulled the CSV & did the same. Don't know which was the culprit but one of them was (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) Later I installed Pertronix, CHT and TPS which really made a world of difference (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
