problem #3

Rodeo 6-cyl

Vehicle sporadicly stalls when slowing to stop or when already stopped. The vehicle "bucks" when accelerating from stopped position. All dash lights come on when the vehicle stalls. After a few minutes of rest, vehicle will start and dash lights turn off. Nothing will register in the computer system. Throttle body has been cleaned, fuel filter has been changed. Mechanic cannot duplicate problem. All signs point to bad intake manifold gasket but mechanic refuses to replace even at owners request. This problem has happened 7 times in the 3 months I have owned it.
