SOURCE: 2000 durango 5.2 cold starts, engine stalls or rpm surging

i know this may sound stupid but if your battery is old or a little weak on this vehicle the idle air control solenoid will act speradicley hunting for were it should be and the vehicle will stall.replace battery

SOURCE: Cobalt not running at low rpm.......

All are possibilities but EGR valve makes the most sense. It's famous for causing poor idling and/or stalling at low RPMS. Best of luck.

SOURCE: runs great,put in gear stalls

You have some kind of sensor bad. Get it checked by a pro ; - )

SOURCE: runs but not change gears

if the speedo works sensors ok what trans in car 3t40 or 4t40e can you shift it manually or will it finally shift at red line

SOURCE: Car will start but will not stay running-not getting gas?

have fuel injection system cleaned
