Re: Attempts stall, Idle Pulses 600-800 rpms, horrible MPG
If there was unmetered air at the dent/crack in the air intake middle pipe it didn't fix a damn thing to cover it up. Still tries to stall ONLY after rad fans turn off.

I think I'm gonna get creative here. I'm gonna run the van for 30 - 45 minutes without the radiator fans connected. Gonna get a big fan and put it right in front of the radiator (or 2 big fans if needed) to keep it cool once it goes just above the "M" on the temp meter. What I am attempting to do is more than rule out that the engine doesn't try to stall when the radiator fans are not in play at all.

Thats my project till Selectron can get back on here and help me with this diode idea he had.
