Yes, but I have all that, most the time. Just not always.
This is an intermittent problem.

BTW, the fuel pump failing does NOT produce a code!

So that's very interesting. And a good clue like the dog that did not bark.

I don't know if I would do this, but they say if you spray carb cleaner near your engine, it will rev if there is a vacuum leak. It is a cheap and easy way to see if u have an engine vacuum leak. I don't recommend it. I would rather just read the codes, since it is much safer.

I like that method. I think I'll make a cone out of newspaper and listen for a leak, then spray it and see what happens.

But other than the intermittent stalling, the engine runs perfectly. I put a glass of water on the intake while idling and
essentially no surface agitation. Revved it up and still nothing, all smooth like the commercial.
