I have read some of the other posts about stalling after shifting into Park and don't understand how this happens. My Dakota did this today for the first time. I was able to start the motor, but had to keep pumping the gas while shifting into Drive in order to get going. When I stopped at a traffic light, foot on the brakes, the motor idled just fine, but stalled again when I shifted into Park after I got home.
What does shifting into Park have to do with idleing (supplying fuel to the motor)?
Does anybody know a "trusted" mechanic in Arlington, Texas ? I am unable to work on my own car because of a bad back and will need help fixing this. I'm kind of new to Texas, less than a year.
Thanks
Mike
