The car has had problems with staying running when engine is warm. When you took your foot off the gas and came to a stop the engine would die. Not sure if the problems are related but since the car stopped starting, the coil and distributor have both been replaced... Any ideas what the problem could be?
The EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) valves like to stick on these cars, they get fouled up with carbon and if they get stuck open, the car will not want to idle well and even stall out. they are vacumn operated and can usually be cleaned with some carb cleaner and small picks. before you clean it, try moving the diaphram up with your fingers and see if it comes back down. this will tell you if its stuck. the EGR manifold port can also become clogged solid and requires removal for cleaning.
