2002 Durango stalling when turning or stopped, anytime let off gas while driving

Asked by Michele Jun 26, 2014 at 08:13 AM about the 2002 Dodge Durango SLT Plus 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Durango was running fine, hubby cleaned to corrosion off battery post. After
that when ever we are turning or sitting at a stop sign it stalls out. If we keep
one foot on the brake and one on the gas it will stay running. What could be
making this happen?

Clean your map/mav sensor. It's located somewhere on your throttle body/air intake. That little diode measures the amount of O2 in the air and adjusts the amount of fuel to send to the injectors. If it gets just a little dirty it throws off the whole system. Squirt it once or twice with engine cleaner. Be careful though. It's delicate and expensive. It'll improve your mpg too..
