I consider it a regular maintenance item. Its held on by a 10mm nut.

Thanks. Isn't there a few hoses and electrical wires hooked to it? Does the air cleaner assembly have to be removed before the ICV can be removed?

Should be: Fuel Pressure Regulator....

Hi Conrad,

What are the symptoms when it stalls?

Does it start and then to die in 1-2 secs?

Does it stall at any speed?

Thanks

Allo.

Will stall when coming to a stop.
Not at speed.
Fires up and purrs.
Recent new plugs, cap/rotor, air filter, fuel filter, plus
it passed the tuff Calif smog test in Aug--07.
Used some "Lubro Moly" Valve cleaner and added some
fuel injecter cleaner plus use Chevron techron gas supreme unleaded gas.

Got some clues ?

Many tks in advance.

(only had car two months.)

Do a search here and jumper the fuel pump relay. If the car stops stalling, you found your problem. That's how I determined mine was bad.

Even with a new FPR, mine has stalled. It has only happened right after a warm restart and then coming to a stop on a downhill slope. I've done everything I could think of, including adding the bypass pipe near the idle valve. It's infrequent enough that I'm not overly concerned with it. I just keep my eye on the tach.

PART II.

Mech says I need a new Fuel Pump Regulator (FPR).
And maybe not a FP Relay....

Maybe this will stop the stalls.

After installation & testing, I'll update.
(will take a few days for shipping).

My 1985 380 SE is Midnight Blue/Tan Lthr.
A really nice combo.
