      Mike, do you have an SES light at all?
      If you do I can scan it with my scanner.

          When it stalls does the tach act funny just before it does? Does start right back up after it quits?

            No the tach never jumped around at all and it would fire back up sometimes, other times you had to wait 10-15 minutes. I think we got it fixed finally. The new MAF seems to be working now, it stalled twice after install but today I was able to get my temp above 165 without stalling. Idled perfect with temp up to almost 210 before I went down the road. Thanks to everyone who helped chase it problem. Guess I should have bought the MAF from the start, figured cleaning it would do the trick.

              i think we may have to do an intake gasket, robb. that coolant seems to be leaking from there. better then a head gasket. any stalling since last we talked?

                LIM gaskets are a common issue, theyre about $50 and SHOULD only tkae an hour or 3 (depending on how much youre drinking LOL)

                  gtp stalls

                  I too have a 99 gtp that stalls for no reason, sometimes it will not completely stall if under accelleration, I will feel a short loss of power and then my TCS turns off along with my tach going to 0 but the engine recovers, everything is back to normal upon restart. It has stalled at idle along with every speed.
