Subject:Re: How Long Does it Take Your Van to Warm up? Cont.

Dennis,
It takes ~4 to 5 minutes to warm up enough so that you can drive down the
road w/o
stalling at a stop sign.  It seems that during this period the idle  hovers
to around 500
rpm.  However, once it warms up enough I have no problems and the idle  gets
up to
~900 rpm.  I then have no problems with stalling.  This is, in a  nutshell,
the problem.
Thanks.
