1998 Oldsmobile Silhouette 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 139.00 miles

I HAD TO REPLACE A BLOWN HEAD GASKET. NOW THAT ITS ALL BACK TOGETHER THE ENGINE WILL RUN UNTIL IT GETS WARM THEN THE VAN JUST QUITS RUNNING. I REPLACED ALL VACUUM LINES AND TPS AND IDLE FLOW SENSORS, BUT IT STILL STALLS WHEN IT GETS WARMED UP. CAN YOU TELL ME WHY?

Hi:
Does it restart? Have you checked fuel pump pressure? Is the check engine light on?

DIAGNOSED AS EGR STICKING. AFTER REPLACING IT THE VEHICLE RUNS FINE. NEVER THREW A CODE OR NO ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON.
THANKS DONNIE.
