If there are check engine light codes, take it to AutoZone for a free analysis.

If there are no check engine codes, the main suspect is the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor. Go to AutoZone, buy CRC brand MAF cleaner in a gray spraycan. Remove the MAF connector. Remove the MAF. Do not touch the internal parts of the MAF with anything! This is important, no brushes, no fingers, nothing (if you touch it, you break it). So with MAF out, you'll see a silver area or a thin wire. Spray well, then let dry for about 2 hours or so (let dry really well). reassemble everything. Start up and stalling should not happen anymore.

So, if the MAF cleaning does not solve it. You might try removing and cleaning the IACV.

Sometimes cold stalling can be caused by a vacuum leak. Take a really close look at any hoses that may be cracked and leaking air. I once found a pin size hole which kept causing my engine to stall, I cut the end with the pin hole off, reattached the hose and all was well.

Good luck, reply back whether the advice worked or not.

I saw a FedEx cargo plane a little while ago that seemed to be standing still about 150 feet in the air--How fast must these planes go to stay in the air?

Well....... this isn't true. A fixed wing aircraft would stall once it the airspeed dips below the stall speed. (Note: In this case....not stall like your car engine but and aerodynamic stall {the wings}) It appears to be standing still but it isn't. Number one-is was going EXTREMELY slow and it had to be a good distance away from you for you to be able to come it with this perception. Only Rotary winged aircraft could actually stand still in the air (Hoovering) or one that has VTOL capabilities like the harrier jump jet.

How often should a horses stall be cleaned if there in it frequently?

My guess would be that you should be mucking out its stall everyday. Horses eat a lot and so they have a lot of waste. They should have fresh bedding so they don't have to stand in the dirty stuff.


How big should a foals stall be?

The size of the stall will depend on if the foal is still with it's mother or if it has been weaned. If it is still with it's mother then the stall needs to be a 'double size' stall which in the USA is typically two 12' x 12' (3.65 m x 3.65m) stalls with the partition removed to make one 12' x 24' (3.65m x 7.31m) stall. If the foal has been weaned and is living on it's own then a basic 12' x 12' stall will do.

Which stall is the cleanest in a public restroom?

The first stall that you come upon is the cleanest. This is for two reasons. People assume that most humans are lazy and would take the first stall, therefore using the back stall thinking it is used less. Shame is also a factor. Adults, like children still feel the need to hide their bowel movements from others. Taking the back stall eliminates the number of other bathroom patrons that could cross your path.
