ENGINE STALLING
MY 1999 S-10, 4 CYL & 5 SPEED TRANSMISSION. STALLS WHEN GOING DOWN ROAD.
THIS WILL HAPPEN WHEN I EASE OFF THE GAS. IF I TURN IT OFF AND COAST, IT WILL RECRANK.
COULD IT BE THE OXGYEN SENSORS OR FUEL PUMP? HAVE CHANGED FUEL FILTER 3 TIMES.
ANY HELP ????? PLEASE.

That shouldn't be a oxygen sensor. Have your fuel pressure checked. Do you push start it or crank it when you restart it?
It could also be something like a Throttle Positioning sensor. If your engine light is on take it to Auto-Zone or Advance Auto Parts and have them check the engine light. They will do it for free.

MY TRUCK WILL CRANK AFTER IT IS TURNED OFF AN SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES.
AUTO ZONE TEST SAYS TO REPLACE BEFORE AND AFTER SENSORS AT CATLYTIC CONVERTER.

RE: ENGINE STALLING
Are you sure about that NCHEVYHEVN? Their are more codes for the o2 sensors than low and high voltage.

Do you know what the trouble code was?
If it is your oxygen sensors doing this you may be able to let it idle until it is at normal opperating temp and it should stall. That is because the oxygen sensors don't immediately control any of your air fuel mixture, the computer uses other sensors and presets, once warmed up they will start to control the air/fuel. But if it will start and drive after a couple of minutes that dosen't seem likely. Dose it drive fine after it dies, or dose it die shortly after again?

RE: ENGINE STALLING
I DO NOT KNOW THE CODE, THEY SAAID THEY NEEDED TOBE REPLACED.
I QUESS IT DEPENDS ON IT'S MOOD. SOMETIMES IT WILL DIE EVERY TIME I SLOW UP AND THEN OTHER TIMES IT WILL RUN FOR DAYS WITH OUT STALLIN OUT.
CAN NOT HAVE IT CHECKED, BECAUSE IT WILL BE RUNNING NORMAL MOST OF THE TIME. ONLY STALL WHEN EVERY ONE IS CLOSED.
THANX AGAIN

Also to the poster of the thread please don't trust autozone people. I've worked in 3 of them myself and their are no real knowledge requirments to work there so most have no idea what they are talking about.

Some of the trouble codes will tell you what to replace, but most of those are the older cars.
