I have a 95 escort lx hb, 1.9L automatic tranny. it keeps stalling while idleing when it´s warm. It works fine when you first start it in the morning or when the engine is cold but it sputters, rough idles and stalls when the engine warms up. It runs fine during normal driving, but once you come to a stop or put the car in park it dies.

so far i´ve replaced the pcv valve, plugs, plug wires, air filter and fuel filter. I looked for a leak in the vacume lines but didn´t see one, but then i´m not sure if i was doing it the right way...

Any ideas as to what the problem could be?

I know what you mean silver i have the same problem with my 91 gt.

It stalls on idle but only when I go to stop at a light, and I found that

it does it more often when drive it ruff...

It only does it once a week but it´s dangerous when it´s stalls in the middle of

the road while turning at a light.

Anyway, eversince i changed my alternator even if it can´t be related by any

way the problem seem to have gone away.

Good luck!
