My sons Probe will stall after warmed up and driving. After anywhere between 10 and 30 minutes it will start and he can continue. This was happening before and a new fuel filter fixed the problem. Note that it has been about 12 to 15 degrees outside since this new problem has started. Thanks in advance for any help in this matter. Rondogg

hmmm. did you check the idle speed? because my prove (94gt) runs at about 1300 rpm when it is really cold out, and then after it warms up it is around 200-250 rpm (idling) that would be my best guess, but it could also be plugs/wires, a vaccum leak, or there could be something wrong with the destributer componants. i had my distributer go bad on me 2 times, so yea, hope that's not the problem with you, cause it is a real pain to fix

p.s. after it stalls, does it start right back up?

oooh, one more thing rondogg, it is possible, that if the fuel system was really dirty, that the new filter got clogged again too. i heard a couple of people on this forum say something about that. anyway, i hope you fix the problem

Thanks Tom, I told him to check the basics and just change the wires, fuel filter, he just changed the plugs. Thanks again
