Check for ice forming on the throttle plates. If it is and you have a cold air intake set up on the engine, remove it, throw it away, and put the correct factory air intake system back on it! Hope that helps! Jim

Thanks for the info. Engine stalls when vehicle reach operating temperature, rpm drops. I was told it might be a sensor...O2 or thermostat sending wrong info or not communicating with the ECU/ECM/PCM, worst case needs replacing and or reprogram?
