Well the thing is i read soo many post on the site changed many things on the car but no success. So i hope one of you guys Could help me

I have a 92 GS K8 With 212000km Great shape but a little problem bothers me.

My car stalls For no reason. I notice it does it mostly when its cold and getting warm up or we could say it have to do it at least once. After its stalls restarted right away. then its ok. Even sometimes it doesn't do it at all.... I know the Car Smell fuel too.
BTW I also check the check engine light. Works Great. But nothing is showing on that side, No Codes

Here is the car history :

Dist - 1yrs 1/2 old,
Spark plug and wire - 1 yrs Also check and its ok
Fuel Filter - 1 month old
2 Oxygen sensor - 1 Month old
temp sensor - 1 Week Old
Catalistyc is ok
No vacuum Leak
Intake accordeon ok

So what Could do that ??

There are 2 temperature sensors i think - one for the computer and one for the temperature gauge (there might be another one for the fan - i am not sure) - which one did you replace?

Well The temp sensor i bought is the one that connects at the computer.

And euhm What is the TPS ?? Is It "Trottle Position Sensor ??" If it is, Well i never touch that since the car was born. Should it give me problem too ?

try tps adjust and check to make sure the IAC (idle air control valve) is working , check the condition of your throttle body as well.

When you start the car cold are you RPM's high, like near 2k? or does it go right to 670?

What mods have you done to the engine?

Alright Here is the update

I have Finally found the problem.... The distributor !! Because i heard that rebuilds one are sooo crappy. They don't last!

So anyone who want to buy a new one, Just buy a manufacture one not rebuilt :2thumbsup:
