Why does my truck stall when I put it in gear?

The primary cause is overfilling the non-vented fuel tank. Stop pumping gas into the tank when the nozzle first clicks off. Don’t try to squeeze every last drop of fuel into the tank. A mechanic will need to inspect the charcoal canister for fuel contamination.

Why does my truck feel like it’s going to stall?

This is a common symptom of a misfire or potentially a faulty idle air control valve which when faulty, can cause the misfire to happen due to an improper air/fuel mixture being supplied to the engine. I would recommend having an expert from YourMechanic come to your home to replace your idle air control valve.

What to do if your Chevy k1500 stall?

Pulled the egr, checked that it held vacuum and no leakage between the ports, replaced the gasket. In neutral it will run indefinitely, although it gets a little rough. Pulling a vacuum line will raise the idle, but doesn’t help when you put it in gear.

Why does my Silverado k1500 stall at traffic lights?

In neutral it will run indefinitely, although it gets a little rough. Pulling a vacuum line will raise the idle, but doesn’t help when you put it in gear. Pulling to a traffic light with the a/c on high, it will idle perfectly for a few seconds, then start gradually dropping, finally shudder and die after 15 -30 seconds.

What was the problem with my 1990 Chevy k1500?

My old 1990 K1500 had the same stalling problems until I changed the EGR valve. We have a 1990 2wd 350 tbi with similar issues. So far it has a new distributor (for an unrelated problem), idle valve, throttle position sensor, knock sensor, temperature sensor, fuel filter, plugs & wires.

Why does my GMC Sierra 1500 stall while in gear?

Motor wants to stall while in gear (but doesn’t do it out of gear once over 1000 rpm it dosent) seem to stall and it is only from a dead stop.

Could be torque converter lockup solenoid in the trans.

What causes stalling on a 1990 Chevy k1500?
