    "99 Rodeo

    I am the orginal owner of a '99 Isuzu Rodeo...this car has been great
    until recently...It only has 61,000 miles on it too.

    It has devolped this dieing for no reason. The tact gets down too low
    when I'm either coming to a stop or turning a corner and it just
    quits. I should mention it's a stick shift. It's not my driving...lol

    Does anyone else have this trouble?? What can it be??? It doesn't do
    it always, but yesterday it did it three times. And it took a few
    mintues to get it going again. Not fun when your in the middle of
    angry people on the road!

    Thanks!

    Yup one of two things have someone or you clean the EGR valve it sound
    as though it is doing whay mine did , sticking take it off and soak
    the base in carb cleaner for about 30 mins or so then make sure the
    little plunger moves freely. another cause if this is a known fault of
    the intake gasket (plastic ) breking apart alowing air where it should
    not be getting you can find this either by listening to an idling
    engine for a hiss of lightly spaying carb cleaner around the base of the
    intake with an idling engine if it is leaking the engine will speed up
    or try to die if to much is sprayed

    Thanks for the info! I'll have my husband check it out. I am just
    confused though...why isn't something like this caught with an overall
    check up on the car?

    2 things, the problem is intrmitant, sometimes the egr valve sticks and
    other times it works fine. AND most machanic, don't check everything
    and also don't have a clue, and love to take your money anyway. My own
    son is a machanic, and I have asked him questions that he can't answer,
    I can't either but I play and find out for myself...I found this only by
    accident , when my passport was acting up ,

    I told my husband about waht you said and he's going to check it out.
    Of course, it hasn't done it again! lol That's why I've always had
    trouble trying to explain what it is the car is doing. They always
    look at me like I'm crazy...
