Let us know if it does or does not solve the problem.. Just post to this thread instead of starting a new one. That way the entire process is documented for someone else and everyone is aware of what suggestins have already been made.

Well this did not solve my problem.I know its not plugs and wires they are new. does any one have any ideas this is making me crazy. the car has 224,000 mile and runs strong but it stalls. I am ready to give up and put a for sale sign in the window.

Test the fuel pressure. You should have around 48psi. A bad crank sensor can cause the engine to stall as well. But testing that is a bit involved.
