1989 Dodge 318 CDI engine with Fuel injection. Motor stalls and surges when starting. Takes 15 mins to start. After warming up for 15 minutes will run better but still occasionally surges and stalls.

Questions here are better with full 'year make model' instead of generic '318'.

A few generic ideas.

  1. Check fuel pump pressure.
  2. Run injector cleaner through the fuel system 'Extreme Clean' is a good one.
  3. Clean the throttle body.
  4. Does it have a MAF (mass air flow sensor)?

My 1998 Dodge 1500 Ram with a 318 engine stalls when I come to a stop. This only happens when the engine is warm.

It probably Throttle position sensor and/or the Idle Air Control Valve. If you need more help diagnosing these, please let me know what tools you have and we can go from there. (i.e. do you have a multi-meter? etc...)

Why won't my truck stay running when I'm not

Try cleaning your throttle body. Over time on high mileage vehicles, the throttle body butterfly valve will gunk up with sludge, and dirt. This will prevent air from entering the intake manifold while the engine is idling, causing low idle/stalling. A can of throttle body/carb cleaner will do the job. First, remove the intake tube to get to the butterfly valve. Spray a small amount of throttle body cleaner directly into the intake, and wipe any excess fluid with a cloth. Also, inspect your air filter. I hope this helps
