started to replace icm, i pulled on number 3 plug wire and the electrode pulled out of the coil pack,
(so much for the made in mexico junk) got another coil pack, but before installing took off icm and ground wire attached to icm bracket cleaned booth ground, icm, and icm bracket to feel at ease of having a good ground connection, replaced new coil pack started car and let run till engine got hot then drove 10 miles in it with out a stall condition, so far seems my problem is fixed, (knock on wood)
thanks for the response
