Ford Mustang: Ford stalls, wont idle

Sounds like the diaphragm in your Carb is shot. VERY common problem.

Check out the 5.0/5.8 Tech Forum on the Crown Vic website. GREAT bunch of
folks there! VERY knowledgeable as well.

Carb? No, it's fuel injected. The thingy that's supposed to kick (or
stop) the throttle lever, doesn't move more than a fraction of an inch,
with applied vacuum. Ergo, no idle.

Does anyone know of a DIY limp-home trick, to get around this
malfunction?

Be sure to check and clean the EGR valve along with the spacer ports. This
was/is a problem and will cause a stall along with a rough idle.

Good Luck
