Stalls after long drives, will start right back up again but when put into gear stalls again, if start in neutral and rev for abit then will go into gear and drive ok for a while. Smells of gas when started or parked for a while as well

gear, is this a Manual trans? or AUTO you said gear.
what gear, please name the gear, 1,2,3,4,5 R
or PRNDL ( a/t box auto matic) what shift lever selection?
what is out door air temp, you do know brakes can get wet and freeze right?
it wont go you meant? until brakes are touched, key word won't?

ok engine only starts in PRNDL set to N??
is that it?
and then when you shift to D, the car will not move
what about the other gears.? try them all yet?

my guess (wild) is that you dont know how park lock out works.?
that you must hold the brake pedal down to shift to park or neutral.
is that it? (read operators guide?)

my guess is car is not drive-able. key point1 (a dead car)
point 2, engine starts and runs. and races on demand with gas foot.
point 3, im lost. (no trans stated or clear symptoms.)

my jeep has 6speed manual box
and the clutch allows me to start car.
on Automatics trans must be in park or neutral to crank engine.

"it will go till i touch brakes"



I read that 10 times,
my 2nd guess. the engine stalls ?

IS THAT IT, stalls means engine RPM is 0
and right foot actions are dead.
and all dash lamps glow, telling you STALL is now.

Most common problem is the IAC(Idle Air Control) valve.But if you say some times work I will suspect the throttle is clogged. Remove the Air hose,apply full throttle and hold, spray carburetor cleaner on clot using thin long nose player clean inside wall and throttle. don't spray directly inside because the carb cleaner is to aggressive for some of the gasket.
Good Luck

check fuel presure

It's the TCC solenoid in the transmission. It is under the pan that is on the side of the transmission.TCC is for torque converter clutch. You can un plug the the wires that go into the front of the transmission until you get it replaced, you just wan't have overdrive. But you can drive it.

94 chevy cav. after driving for a while, the car shuts off when u break. it will start back up but stalls as soon as you put it in a gear. let it sit for half hour and it will drive again for a while then starts the process all over again. any suggestions

hold revs up for approx 5-10 seconds then slowly bring back to idle if it still stalls have to adjust air bleed screw in throttle body to adjust idle speed
ECU needs to relearn must put in gear then turn on a/c while in gear idling and then turn on head lights then put in neutral while other things are on then turn off all things and go for drive

There is an electrical connection located on the transmission. Disconnect the connector and try to drive it again. This will help to determine if the problem is located in the transmission or engine related.
Let me know.
Regards,

When it stalls, does it start back up and then die again when you put it in drive or just not start back up?
