I have a 1994 Chrsyler LHS 3.5. It stalls once it warms up and you come to a stop. It also has a little bit of a ruff idel just sitting still when you start it. It always starts back up but sometimes cranks longer then it should.
I have replaced both the Cam and crank postion sensors and also the spark plugs. No effect. Fuel pressure regulator seems to be fine and does not leak into the vacume port. Anyone have any ideas here?

failing fuel pump?
fuel filter?
injectors?
plug wires?
IAC motor?
???????????

Also head gaskets are still good.

I can think of two things

1 TB are gummed up and close off the air supply at idle (when closed).
clean plate and bore with carb cleaner & a tooth brush.

2 vaccum hose open/cracked or off - check PVC hose, etc.
carb cleaner or starting fluid sprayed around the hoses with engine
running will find the bad hose.

I would start with #1 first unless hose is obvious.

your EGR valve could also be faulty.

check intake gaskets and also check your valve timing very very common problems with these engines i did 2 this week with timing belt jumping on one cam usually water pump or tensioner cause this problem

It ended up being the stupid pointless EGR valve! Thanks for all your help.
