Sounds the EGR valve and EVP sen is bad even if you tested it. The EGR valve cntrols idle and if carbon up will make the car stall or idle high and low (rpms going up and down) This was common on all cars during that time. I would say replace the EGR valve and senosr. This should take care of the problem. One more thing have the fuel pressure check on the car.

Best do a fuel pressure test. Should have chg. fuel filter from the get go. The only other filter is on the end of the fuel pump in tank. Bad gas and dirty gas will plug up fuel filter, hense burn pump up.

I had this same problem on my 2005 monte carlo, took mechanic a while to figure out it was the idle air control valve. They also replace the idle air control motor.

There are NO choke coils on your vehicle, so don't bother looking for something that doesn't exist, just like there is NO carb on your engine. What you have is either a 3.4 or 3.8 liter V-6, sequential multi-port fuel injected engine.
The first thing you should do is replace the fuel filter. This is located underneath your vehicle, in front of the rear suspension. You will need a 10mm socket or wrench to remove the bolt that holds on the mounting bracket for the fuel filter. You will then need to push the fuel line forward towards the filter, while you are pushing in the white plastic retaining clips, then while holding them him, continue to hold the filter with one hand, while pulling back the line with the other, It should easily come off. Repeat for the other line. I recommend this as the first step, because many vehicle owners don't bother to get their fuel filter changed as often as they should. It should be changed at least every 24,000 miles.
Drive the vehicle and see if that took care of the problem. If not, you most likely have a bad fuel pump, which is mounted in the fuel tank, a bad fuel pressure regulator, which is mounted on the fuel rail on the engine, it is usually black with a vacuum line going to the top of it, and you may also have a catalytic converter that is starting to go bad, as once they heat up is usually when the internal grid expands and can begin blocking the exhaust.
This may all seem overwhelming to you, but an easier solution might be for you to take it so a reputable shop and have them run diagnostics on it, with you then bringing home and doing the repair yourself to save on parts and labor. Diagnostic fees could run slightly less than $100, to slightly more than that, but could save you from buying and replacing parts that you don't need.
Hope this helps.
