1994 vSaturn SL2 DOHC Idle deops suddenly when coming to a stop

Discussion in 'Saturn S-series' started by wrightprice1977, May 4, 2005.

  1. When I depress the brake over and over, when coming to a complete stop,
    when I turn the steering wheel, when I use my electric window switches.
    All of these things will make my idle drop and it seems to have just
    started this like over nite.

    Can anyone help me out or give me any ideas that mite help, because I have
    a feeling that it mite get to the point that it starts stalling.

    Same thing happened with my 1996 SL1. Car would almost stall when
    stopping. Turned out to be a dirty throttle body. Dealer cleaned it up.
    No problem since. In my windows, brakes or switches had nothing to do
    with it. Hope this helps.

    If your probs are caused by electrical activities, the alternator would be
    one of my 1st suspects, have it tested.

    Also clean the TB with TB cleaner spray and throw some Chevron Techron fuel
    system cleaner in a fresh full tank of gas a few times.
