Stalling 200 1987

O2 sensor does not affect idle, stalling or starting, it merely fine tunes the mixture to reduce emissions. A car that is otherwise OK can run just fine without it. The real problem lies elsewhere.

Your idle speed should be 750 rpm and remain there after a momentary drop when putting into gear. If the idle speed control is not working and your base idle speed is already low it may stall.

What is your idle speed?
