Question
I have a 95 dodge intrepid that i can start easily but when i turn the heat to defrost my windsheild the motor stall. I can usually get it to stay on after i try a few times. This doesn't happen all the time. I also have trouble when i'm driving the car acts like it is going to stall then doesn't. I believe it usually happens with the heat on. Others don't believe this is related but I wasn't sure. Any ideas?

Answer
Hello Diane
I belive you the heater controll works by vacuim this will cause the car to stall if the heater controlls are being used . It will have to be checked to see if the vac lines are bad or one off that is all it takes . Good luck to u and if you need any more help let me know hun and u have a very pretty name pete
