I have a 1992 Cadillac Deville and it is stalling often. I'm not sure what the problem is. Can anyone give me a list of things to check. Thank you.

I had the same problem with my '99 Eldorado, it stalled at about 30 mph often and I took it to Cadillac 3 times and all they could tell me is that they could tell by the computer that it had stalled. I finally took it to my local mechanic who found that it was something in the exhaust system with butterfly in the name. Sorry I can't be more specific than that but he charged me $50 to clean it and I haven't had that problem since.

when does it stall? Most of the time a car stall's the first thing to check for is the fuel filter.Try replacing it and let me know if that help!!! They cost anywhery from 3.00 dollars to 15.00 dollars a service person will charge you about 30.00 to 60.00 bucks to replace it for you,good luck!!!I had the same problem with my '99 Eldorado, it stalled at about 30 mph often and I took it to Cadillac 3 times and all they could tell me is that they could tell by the computer that it had stalled.
