If I drive my car home from work, about a 45min trip, if I run in a store, start her back up, she stalls, then dies, I have to give it gas to get it going, noticed this happening a few weeks ago, so changed plugs and air cleaner, same problem, its getting cold here, so dont want a minor problem turning big, what should I check?

pull codes. we have to deal with puters on our cars, so might as well let it try to help you figure out what is wrong.

good luck.

no it does not. the KAM can get and hold codes w/o ever illuminating the light. something major should illuminate the CEL for a good amount of time though.

good luck
