ISSUE: An intermittent stumble or stall while driving at low speeds up to 8 mph (13 km/h) may be caused by the EEC IV processor shutting off the fuel injector system. The EEC IV processor may incorrectly read sensor input signals and interpret them to indicate a vehicle speed that triggers a shut down of the fuel injector system.
ACTION: To correct this, install a new level EEC IV processor. Refer to the following EEC IV processor application chart for the correct service replacement part number.
