Car stalling
Did the 'Check Engine' Light come ON? Whenever the 'CHECK ENGINE' light comes on, the ECU (Engine Control Unit) sets a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). These codes identify the particular engine management system which caused the light to come on. You'll need to use/find an OBDII (On-Board Diagnostic) Scanner to retrieve any code which have been stored in the ECU computer. Afterward, we might be able to help you DIAGNOSE and perhaps eventually fix the problem.
NOTE: Commonly, the throttle position sensor (TPS)can cause the symptom you describe without turning on the CHECK ENGINE light. The TPS is a simple dash-pot (potentiometer) which can develop problems with age/time. Recommend you find a mechanic/ electrician who knows how to test it for bad spots -- if they find any, replace it.
