Does any one know how to adjust the idle on the 3l gas engine? I got back from a trip after 4 weeks and my van keeps stalling. Basically it won't idle at all and if I slow down the van stalls. Made for an unpleasant trip through Vancouver last night during rush hour.
Any help or suggestions are welcome!

Mine is now doing this same thing.. did you find the route of the problem?
I'm thinking it's related to an overheated Transmission. Any other ideas on the problem or just crank up the idle and forget about it?

That sounds like a problem I had in my 3 litre dodge.
If the butterfly gets dirty it won't close enough and stalls the engine. PITA but easily solved by wiping down/spraying the butterfly and surrounding tube inside the air box with carb cleaner.
Just an idea but you never know if the deli 3.0 litre has the same problems... Hmmmm? Look for the easiest solution first. KISS
