  1. Thanks, Ghandi.  Have not checked vacuum because it didn't seem pertinent, given the symptoms:  

    A) It runs perfectly and starts almost immediately nearly every time.  Also true when restarting if it stalls as described.

    B) Problem is only after shutdown while warm/hot.

    Do you disagree?

  2. My wife's Grand Am sometimes stutters and/or stalls when accelerating from a stop; usually happens after being shut down hot for ~20 minutes to ~2 hrs.  Throttle position sensor checks OK except output voltage at wide open throttle = 4.27V; manual says should be >4.5.  Closed throttle = .44V (OK), Reference signal to TPS = 5.04V (OK) and ground checks good.  Voltage increase/decrease as throttle is opened/closed is smooth; no change if TPS is lightly tapped while opening/closing.  All checks done after engine warm.  No codes, no engine light.

    Any knowledgeable input will be appreciated.

    Thanks.
