    Default Engine Stall: When driving on neutral --- HELP

    Hello Folks,

    I have my CEL on most of the times, throwing a 1221 or 1222 code. When the CEL goes off (by itself) and I am driving (rolling) on neutral. The car stalls.

    I have a new O2 sensor, and checked for vacuum leaks.

    Thanks

    Why would you be driving in neutral?

    Have you tried cleaning/swapping the ICV (Idle Control Valve)? What about the MAF?
