Author Message   Colt M Posted on Thursday, March 07, 2002 - 12:20 am:    First time poster. '95 LWB Classic w/ OME HD springs, RTE body lift, 90,000 miles. Engine started stalling (felt slightly rough) a few days ago during braking, after running a bit. Just kept the idle up thinking 'bad gas'. Started right up each time at first, but over the next (2) days, stalls more & needs to sit longer (up to 20 minutes) before able to re-start. Runs perfectly fine for a few miles, then you touch the brake pedal and the RPMs drop like a rock. Once restarted seems to run fine as long as you don't need to STOP. Checked & cleaned stepper, no change. Any suggestions or input? Thanks   JCC Posted on Thursday, March 07, 2002 - 10:07 am:    could be your fuel pump or fuel filter? Can ya hear your fuel pump buzzin? If so then just change your inline fuel filter, that should help it!

Also, check the plastic T piece for build up, clean if necessary. If your not sure what I'm talking about go here http://www.roverconnection.com/RRC%20Parts%202/rr2c1d7.htm It's part 27 in the drawing. Gently pull the hoses off so you don't crack it. I used carb cleaner and Q-tips to clean mine out.
