95-S500 occasional stalling when stopped at intersection...

Hi,

I have this problem just recently... I bought it in 05 when it has 95K miles. it now has 130K. It runs well otherwise, on highway

Is there anything that I could do to fix this? Would replaceing the fuel relay fix this problem? Or anything else? May be a full tune-up with new wire set, plugs, filters, etc???

Thanks for your help.

Have you used the code reader under the hood to see what codes might be stored? Yours is an OBD1 system that give codes as a series of blinks.

Hi ,

Thank you, TMallison, for your reply. I'm quite new to this forum and the car. Could you please elaborate a little more and tell me what the code reader is? how can I get them? how does it help me fix my problem?

Thanks.
