I have an '87 Range Rover. Recently it has been stalling as I coast up to a stop sign. When it stalls I can sometimes mash the accellerator and bring it back to life.

I was told that I had a vacuum leak and that was causing my problems. I replaced all the vac lines I could find, and the problem still exists. Could this be the Throttle Position Sensor?

Do you have carbs or fuel injection?

Mine is the Fuel Injected 3.5l

Possiblities:

Clean the stepper motor hole with some carb cleaner. If that doesn't cure it, then your IAC (idle air control) needs to be checked out.
