pull the rubber hose off the egr valve,speed up the engine then let it go backto idle.is there any change.the egr or the solenoid that operates it could be At Fault.you can also press up under the valve,it's spring loaded to check if it's stuck. good luck paul g

Why would my 1984 Dodge pick up truck stall at the light when I stop
Had same problem in my 2000 contour. The problem was with a bad wire on my fuel pump. Every time i turned a sharp corner car would stall. I replaced fuel pump and no probs since.
A problem in the fuel line could cause it to stall. On a stick shift, letting off the clutch too soon would cause the vehicle to stall.
No, it would not. There are many things that could cause a stall at idle. The throttle plate could be dirty as well as the mass air flow sensor. You did not mention the kind of car or engine size. Is the check engine light on, is it when the engine is warmed up or cold?
They are on the same fuse.
My car has done the same thing and i found that old gas was the only problem
I would not expect a valve cover leak to cause a car to stall. A valve cover leak can fill the spark plug area with oil which can cause rough running.
Yes, a bad O2 sensor would cause a 2002 Dodge Dakota to stall. It would also cause bad fuel mileage and hard idling within the vehicle.
mass air flow sensor
It's probably the idle control solenoid
i had this happen before. it was before i cleaned out the lower intake manifold. car was running too rich and not getting enough air. when i turned the steering it would put stress on the engine when idling and then stall.
