Car dying what to check?

sorry meant the intake. Was told it goes to the pvc valve.

two possibilities, bad Idle control Valve/motor or stuck EGR. A bad ICV/ICM will show up with very low idle or erratic idle, and car will only die on idle. A bad EGR will cause difficult starts on cold weather, but no problems in warm weather.

Battery. Sounds odd, but a weak battery can cause all sorts of issues. My Durango would start fine, but within a mile would just die. It would restart fine but just wouldn't hold idle.

So.........did you fix it?

Have you tried holding it at a relatively high RPM for a few minutes? Something could be gunked up and making the engine work a bit could burn it off.
