Stalling Windstar
My wifes Windstar stalls when idling: I've fixed a vac leak and replaced the IAC - it's better, but still stalls. Now it only stalls when it's in Drive. If you put it in Neutral it idles fine (I haven't tried reverse).
Anyone have any ideas what I should try next?

Thoroughly inspect for and correct all vac leaks, under the hood visually inspect for and correct electrical issues associated with the electronic engine management systems (ie, loose connections, etc) and check for the presence of DTC's. By no more parts until a proper diagnosis and failed component confirmation has been performed.

The IAC was replaced after consulting my local factory-certified Ford mechanic. In doing that I found and fixed the vac leak. If I knew what else to look for / test I would do it, instead of asking here...
