91 chrysler new yorker. When driving down the freeway the car starts to decelerate even while pressing the gas pedal. I have to pull over and wait for 10 minutes or so and the car will start right up and drive. Thus far the car has not shut itself off while acting up in idle position. I have changed the plugs and wires and the fuel filter.

go to magicmechanic online and send him problem-hes a mastertech on any make and model

Check fuel pressure and see if the pump is good

Take it to a local mechanic and get them to have a look for you as it sounds like the autochoke cold start temperature sensor could be defective

when you take your foot off the gas and the car stalls indications are an air leak in one of the hoses.although it could be several other things its worth checking out.(poss a servo air leak...)

Have you changed the old gas?

I would start with a new fuel filter, all indications by what you're describing sounds like a fuel filter. Try that first. Then if it hasn't been tuned in awhile - that would be a good idea too.

There is no 3-10 code for the 91 chrysler new yorker 3.3 Liter. Are you sure it is not blinking another code?

Check the stop light switch down by the brake pedal. there's 2 wires going to the switch. when the pedal is pressed the little button on the switch comes out and causes the brake lights to come on. Try unplugging it and putting a jumper wire in the plug to complete the circuit. Second guess: if the car is rusted, check the wires in the trunk above the wheels.

sorry the cost of the repair is more than the car is worth ,recon gearbox needed
