H3 stalling in driveway- need some help
I'm at a loss right now, I'm not sure where to proceed
Problem:When the truck is up to temp it idles rough and then stalls at stop signs and red lights If I start it cold in the driveway and let it sit until full temp, Once at full temp it will start to idle rough and then stall, After stalling it restarts immediately, but will stall within a minute or two. No codes thrown- no check engine light Seems to drive fine once i give her some gas i have no power loss Corrective actions so far New to me 06 H3 150,000 miles. Vin 3026XX ( i believe out of the valve danger zone) Cleaned resonator box Cleaned throttle body Replaced airfilter Replaced bad breather hose under resonator box New ACdelco MAP New ACdelco Sparkplugs New ACdelco O2 sensors New Acdelco MAF ( replaced 10-14-19) New Acdelco camshaft actuator solenoid valve New Acdelco Cam position sensors New battery Inspecting wire harnesses for damage ( ongoing ) Looked for a vacuum leak unable to find one so far Checked gas cap for tank vacuum Intake manifold seems tight Full tank of new gas Any help would be greatly appreciated I'm really stuck right now Thank you Steve |
Did you clean the coils contacts?
crc electronic cleaner/dielectric grease Did you clean the injectors? |
Also, try disconnecting the maf sensor at operating temperature, turn ignition off, then start and let idle.

I plan to do that, I am confused why a dirty injector would only be affecting the truck when hot? Not busting your balls I'm looking for a teachable moment. Thank you I appreciate all your help |

Just to be clear you want me to: Start truck and idle to full temp unplug the maf while the truck is running Observe the results for a time Turn off the truck Start the truck Observe the results for a time Turn off the truck Reconnect maf Restart truck Observe the results for a time I really appreciate your help |
try monitoring your fuel pressure if possible when it is running normal and when it is running bad and see if there is a difference. fuel pump could be acting up when hot.
another test is when running bad open the fuel tank cap if it gets better and normalizes then maybe you have a stuck purge valve or gas cap that is creating too much vacuum in the fuel tank restricting fuel flow. are you loosing any coolant from the coolant tank and you cant find any leaks then it could be blowing out the tail pipe usually a white smoke... head gasket or cracked engine head or block. |

Coil contact seemed very clean and spark plug wells that they sit in. But I didn't clean them.

It didn't die while unplugged I did get a traction fail warning after unplugging it not sure what that's about. What are your thoughts? Thank you |
did you try opening the gas cap when it running rough?
