1997 Town and Country runs well and idles smoothly but stalls intermittently at idle. It will run for 5 minutes or one hour then shuts off, then restarts easily. Cleaned the throttle body- it was very dirty, but still stalls. CAM and Crank sensors look good on the DSO. Does not set codes. Fuel pressure good while it runs. Once it seemed like fuel pressure dropped just before the stall, and fuel pump looked dicey on the DSO, but changing it didn’t help. Could the PTC fuse in the battery feed circuit to the fuel pump in junction block be opening at random? or any other ideas? I have been puzzling over this problem for hours.
Thanks

With the car stalling. We need to find what we are loosing

Does your instrument cluster ever go out? Then randomly come on? Do you have a digital odometer? Does the odometer randomly turn off/on?
Evidently, these clusters are known to “fall apart” from the inside. Our ’99 had 2 resistors on the circuit board completely fried – we had many stalls, fail to start, alarm problems.
