engine stalls when I shift to Park

[pollock]

Lately when I shift to park, my engine often stumbles and sometimes dies completely. It starts right back up if I need to.

Doesn't seem to matter if the engine is warmed up or not.

Recent plugs, wires, and air filter change.

Otherwise the engine runs great, smooth idle, etc. ~88K miles.

Thoughts on what to look for? Vacuum leak maybe?

If your car's fuel injected, might want to look at the idle air control valve and related wiring.

Yeah mine started doing it last week pulled of my month old oreilly brand IAC and put on my 24 year old motorcraft one that wasnt bad when I replaced it and voila no more stalling or fluttering idle.

I usually clean my IAC once or twice a year, haven't had an issue with idling/stalling/etc. yet. *knocks on a piece of wood*
