Check you AIC (also known as AIS)...should probably clean it while you got
it out...as long as you're doing that you might as well clean the entire TB.
You should also use a bottle of injector cleaner in your next tank of gas.
I use Chevron Pro Gard every 5,000 miles. Check your battery...I can't tell
you how many times bad batteries cause problems, especially in the later
Daks because less than 12 volts and the PCM won't put power to the
injectors. No fuel, no run. I would opt for better plug wires. MSD 8.5 mm
super conductors. That will eliminate cross firing and leaky electricity.
You may want to check your PS fluid level as well while you're digging
around down there.

Subject: DML: Dak's dying out....
Sup everybody
My Dak is having the [annoying] tendancy of dying out on me. Whenever I
go from reverse to drive I get a HUGE rpm drop, and occasionally it
doesnt recover and dies. It usually happens when Im pulling out of a
driveway or parking lot, But its also happend while shifting into park.
When it dies I get no check engine light or any light at all. I've had it
sent to the dealer but they say everything is within "SPEC". Can anyone
speculate as to what might be causing this? (oh yeah, everything's
pretty much stock (wires, plugs, intake, ect.) just hit 10000 miles) I
have a theroy it might have something to do with the Power steering, as
usually when it dies (and Im shifting into Drive) im also turning the
steering wheel.....
