    Our 1987 Plymouth Voyager (3.0L V6) has 137K miles on it. It usually starts
    fine, and runs well. Every once it a while it stalls. It does not run
    rough, miss, or show any sign of problems - we're driving along and realize
    the steering is stiff and it is not responding to gas - it has stalled. The
    check engine light does not come on, and a trip to the dealer showed no
    stored codes.

    It usually starts right back up, but once it a while it is very reluctant to
    restart. Today we went to the mall, and I tried restarting it just after we
    turned the car off. It wouldn't start. I checked and found no spark at the
    plugs.

    We let it sit while we were shopping. When we came back, it started after
    three tries.

    It rarely gives us problems after sitting overnight in the garage.

    I dislike taking it back to the dealer without a resaonable idea of what
    might be wrong.

    Thanks!

    Clear skies, Alan

    Hi.
    Check the map sensor or its connection. It is situated in the back of the
    engine on top, You see it easily. Move the wires to see.
