Subject:'90 GL dying at idle
From:Trooz

I finally got the big problem fixed; now I have a mildly annoying one.  My
van will suddenly die at idle occasionally.  It starts back up with no
problem.  There are no obvious preliminaries indicating that it's getting
ready to quit, no coughing, no sputtering, it just stops.

I just replaced the spark plugs and the distributor and the temp II sender.
Other than those items it's basically original with 218,000 miles.

Anyone have an idea as to what might be wrong?
