    89 Dodge Dakota
    3.9 89 Dodge Dakota usually starts well but may stall and be difficult to restart. Have replaced coil and spark plug wires also disconnected EGR valve. The problem is it dies while idling. Any ideas on how to stop this from happening?

    Should be reasonably close to the distributor. Follow wiring from distributor and it should lead into it.

    No carburetor linkage attached to it, just an electrical connector.
