My 97 monte keeps stalling. It starts, but it seems the idle is "searching". From 800 RPM to 500 RPM. When driving, rolling to a stop, it will hesitate, then quit. New injectors 1000 miles ago...Reform gas in Milwaukee, WI.
Only 53000 miles...

Replace your Ignition control module.
Tell me how it goes.

Try removing the IAC valve from the throttle body and cleaning the pintle and the bore it rides in

Where is this idle air control valve located? Do I need a replacement gasket right away or can I use the old one? What type of cleaning solution can I use?
Thanks...

The IAC vavle is in the throttle body. It is mounted to the TB with 2 screws. There are basicall two sensors ont the TB. One is the TPS (throttle position sensor) and the other is the IAC. When you unbolt the IAC, you will see a cone shaped pintle with a spring behind it. The best cleaner to use is Throttle body cleaner, but Carb cleaner will work in a pinch. Just make sure you let it evaporate before attempting to re-start.
