engine ran fine prior to this. now runs smooth except for intermitent stalling
a couple of times a day. only when rolling to a stop or rolling slow enough to
make a turn. any sugestions on what to look for

Had similar problem with '97 Grand Voyager, 3.3L. Look into removing anti-knock sensor. Dealer knows about this (TSB 18-34-98).

I just replaced the timing belt in my 1998 2.4L, and it too runs smoothly, but stalls every time I come to a stop. Unfortunately, this is almost certainly due to the timing belt being one tooth off on one of the cams, (making both cams off by one half a tooth.)

Nothing for it, but to do the timing belt installation over.

I redid my timing belt installation and the stalling went away. Do not assume that, because you did not move anything after removing the belt, that the timing will be correct when you put the new belt on. Valve spring pressure will move one or both of the cams. WHat I found on my 4 cylinder was that, if you set the cam timing marks the way they show inthe manual, when you go to put the belt over the tensioner, you end up moving the crankshaft. After 5 tries, I figured out that it's OK that the crankshaft moves, as long as all the timing marks were in the right position when you started to put the belt on. After releasing the tensioner and turning the engine over twice, the marks lined up correctly (at last).
